The #Georgia Secretary of State has successfully swept this still exploitable #voter registration vulnerability under the rug. https://infosec.exchange/@abreacher/113472501179978692
Journalists and lawyers don't want to take it seriously, so they get to get away with it.

Georgia My Voter Page (MVP) Registration Change
Description
A security vulnerability was found in Georgia's My Voter Page (MVP) portal, allowing unauthorized changes to voter registration without verifying the voter's identity. This flaw bypasses standard identity checks, enabling changes with minimal, publicly available information. Despite claims by the Georgia Secretary of State's office that county registrar review mitigates this risk, tests confirm that the vulnerability remains unaddressed.
Details
The vulnerability in the MVP portal permits an attacker to alter a voter's registration information using only basic personal details--such as name, date of birth, and county of residence. With these, an attacker can access a voter's MVP account and initiate changes without needing a valid driver's license linked to the voter.
The vulnerability involves the following steps:
This vulnerability poses significant risks to election security, particularly in tight local races where voter disenfranchisement could occur undetected. The ease of access and potential for abuse underline the urgent need for stronger verification measures within the MVP portal.
CVSS Score: 8.6 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:H/A:N)

👋 Hi, I’m Alison Breacher (she/her), a cybersecurity researcher focused on finding vulnerabilities and helping make everyday systems more secure. I enjoy digging into the details to turn security gaps into solutions. When I’m not reverse engineering or testing systems, I’m usually learning new tools or collaborating on projects with the infosec community.
Always up for a good challenge and excited to see where this journey takes me next. #Cybersecurity #BugHunter #VulnResearch
