Vulnerability Overview

The WP-Invoice – Web Invoice and Billing plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on the wpi_gateway_base::process_payment() function when using the wpi_twocheckout payment gateway handler in versions up to, and including, 4.1.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update the meta data of previously invoiced users.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 4.1.1, 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.
