Summary
The PrivateContent plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to protection mechanism bypass due to the use of client side validation in versions up to, and including, 8.4.3. This is due to the plugin checking if an IP had been blocklist via client-side scripts rather than server-side. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to bypass any login restrictions that may prevent a brute force attack.

"value": "El complemento PrivateContent para WordPress es vulnerable a la omisi\u00f3n del mecanismo de protecci\u00f3n debido al uso de la validaci\u00f3n del lado del cliente en versiones hasta la 8.4.3 incluida. Esto se debe a que el complemento verifica si una IP hab\u00eda sido incluida en la lista de bloqueo mediante scripts del lado del cliente en lugar de hacerlo desde el lado del servidor. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados eludan cualquier restricci\u00f3n de inicio de sesi\u00f3n que pueda evitar un ataque de fuerza bruta."
