Vulnerability Overview

The Payflex Payment Gateway plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the payment_callback() function in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update the status of orders, which can potentially lead to revenue loss.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 2.6.0, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) The product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action.
