Am I affected?

With a domain, we read the version its public headers and pages expose. A distribution build can carry the fix under an older number.

Description

The User Verification by PickPlugins WordPress plugin before 2.0.49 does not rate limit the verification step of its one-time-password login, and does not expire the generated code, allowing unauthenticated attackers to brute force it and log in as any user, including administrators, where the code is configured to use digits only.
