Sites running the Magic Link WordPress plugin before version 2.2.6 that allow user accounts to exist with low privileges, such as subscribers. Attackers need a logged-in account of any role, so sites with open registration are at higher risk. Sites without the plugin or already on 2.2.6 or later are not affected.
