Wallet for WooCommerce <= 1.6.4 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) User/Email Enumeration via terawallet_export_user_search AJAX Action

The Wallet for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.4. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to enumerate the login name, email address, and user ID of all WordPress accounts — including administrators — by submitting arbitrary search terms to the AJAX handler. The required 'search-user' nonce is localized into the wallet_param object on the standard WooCommerce My Account page, which is accessible to any authenticated user, making it trivially obtainable by a Subscriber.

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: Wallet for WooCommerce 1.6.5 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
