What it is

The WP 2FA WordPress plugin before 3.1.1.2 does not verify that the email address supplied during two-factor authentication setup belongs to the user, allowing an attacker who has obtained a user's credentials to redirect the setup verification code to an attacker-controlled email address and take over the account.
