WordPress · Rename Wp-Login.Php To Anything You Want · CVE-2026-93368
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Rename wp-login.php to anything you want versions prior to 2.0.2
**Description**
The plugin is subject to time-based SQL Injection, a technique where an attacker sends a query that forces the database to wait a specific amount of time before responding, allowing them to infer data. This occurs because of insufficient escaping of user-supplied parameters and a lack of preparation in the SQL query. Unauthenticated attackers can append additional SQL queries to extract sensitive information from the database. The issue is exacerbated because WordPress core applies the `wp unslash()` function to the `log` POST value before the `wp login failed` action is dispatched, which removes backslash escaping and allows raw single quotes to reach the plugin handler. The affected parameter is `log` (Username).
**Recommendations**
Update to a version newer than 2.0.1.
Avoid using the `log` parameter in the login process until the plugin is updated.
