The FluentAuth WordPress plugin before 1.0.2 prioritizes getting a visitors IP address from certain HTTP headers over PHPs REMOTE_ADDR, which makes it possible to bypass the IP-based blocks set by the plugin.

Weakness

This attack-focused weakness is caused by incorrectly implemented authentication schemes that are subject to spoofing attacks.
