This is due to the social login REST callback registered at /wp-json/wslu-social-login/type/{provider}/ with permissioncallback => returntrue locating an existing WordPress account solely by the email string returned from the OAuth provider and calling wpsetauthcookie() without a password check, while the only verification guard — !empty($getProfile->emailVerified) in inc/admin-create-user.php — is a no-op for the bundled Hybridauth Facebook and Twitter adapters, both of which assign the raw email string rather than a boolean verified flag to emailVerified. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to obtain a fully authenticated session as any existing WordPress user, including Administrators, whose registered email address can be presented through a configured Facebook or Twitter login on the target site.
