Was just looking into matomo-org/matomo-for-wordpress#288 and then noticed we always first issue a query against the user table before actually checking the cached data.
Should a token be used with admin or write permission, then we actually save the user query.
It shouldn't cause any security issue cause if the token is not a valid
admin
orwrite
permission token, then below code would be still executed and eg the brute force check should be executed just like before.
