Latest update breaks login when using wordfence

  • After yesterdays update a client could no longer log into their website.

    No user could log into the admin area.

    Disabling the plugin fixes the problem.

    Disabling WordFence also seemed to fix it but only when disabling it completely. Turning off any login security options didn’t work and neither did putting the waf into learning mode.

    Could be a possible conflict between the two?

    If I re-enable the plugin once logged in I get redirected to a setup screen which says the plugin is out of date even though it updated yesterday.

    After a bit more testing, it does seem to be directly related to using recaptcha on the login screen and coschedule trying to redirect:

    ?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fworth.test%2Fwp-admin%2Fadmin.php%3Fpage%3Dtm_coschedule_setup&reauth=1

    Maybe something to do with reauth=1

    I just found out the client doesn’t use the plugin anyway so I’ll be removing it.
