The PeachPay — Payments & Express Checkout for WooCommerce (supports Stripe, PayPal, Square, Authorize.net) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability checks on the ConvesioPay webhook REST endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 1.119.8. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the status of arbitrary WooCommerce orders.
The Payment Button for PayPal plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized order creation in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.3.41. This is due to the plugin exposing a public AJAX endpoint (`wppaypalcheckout_ajax_process_order`) that processes checkout results without any authentication or server-side verification of the PayPal transaction. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to create arbitrary orders on the site with any chosen transaction ID, payment status, product name, amount, or customer information via direct POST requests to the AJAX endpoint, granted they can bypass basic parameter validation. If email sending is enabled, the plugin will also trigger purchase receipt emails to any email address supplied in the request, leading to order database corruption and unauthorized outgoing emails without any real PayPal transaction taking place.
The Wallet System for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'change_wallet_fund_request_status_callback' function in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to manipulate wallet withdrawal requests and arbitrarily increase their wallet balance or decrease other users' balances.
The User Registration Using Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the 'get_cf7_form_data' function in all versions up to, and including, 2.5. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve form settings which includes Facebook app secrets.
The Quick Contact Form plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Open Mail Relay in all versions up to, and including, 8.2.6. This is due to the 'qcf_validate_form' AJAX endpoint allowing a user controlled parameter to set the 'from' email address. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to send emails to arbitrary recipients utilizing the server. The information is limited to the contact form submission details.
The Float Payment Gateway plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to improper error handling in the verifyFloatResponse() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.9. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to mark any WooCommerce order as failed.
The Aplazo Payment Gateway plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the check_success_response() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to set any WooCommerce order to `pending payment` status.
The PayHere Payment Gateway Plugin for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to an improper validation logic in the check_payhere_response function in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.9. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change the status of pending WooCommerce orders to paid/completed/on hold.
The Netcash WooCommerce Payment Gateway plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the handle_return_url function in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to mark any WooCommerce order as processing/completed.
