Vulnerability Overview
The WCFM Membership – WooCommerce Memberships for Multivendor Marketplace plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 2.11.8 via the 'WCFMvm_Memberships_Payment_Controller::processing' due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify other users' membership payments.
Technical Analysis
The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no interaction from a victim user.
CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key
Reaching this weakness in WCFM Membership <= 2.11.8 takes a caller who can reach the endpoint. Authorization bypass through a user-controlled key, often called insecure direct object reference, means the application looks up a record by an identifier from the request without checking that the caller owns it.
Changing a number in the request is enough to read or modify other users' records, which on commerce and membership sites means customer data. For WCFM Membership the fix is 2.11.9: builds <= 2.11.8 are affected, anything from 2.11.9 onward is not.
Remediation
Update to version 2.11.9, or a newer patched version
How does WordSec protect against this?
Because it turns on account access, WordSec's login security is the relevant layer: role-based two-factor, captcha and brute-force limits raise the cost of getting the account this needs. None of that substitutes for the fix: WCFM Membership 2.11.9 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
