CVE-2025-14078PAYGENT for WooCommerce <= 2.4.6 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated Payment Callback Manipulation
Medium 5.3
In plain English
A medium-severity missing authorization in PAYGENT for WooCommerce from shoheitanaka. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.3% (higher than 24% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The PAYGENT for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.6. This is due to missing authorization checks on the paygent_check_webhook function combined with the paygent_permission_callback function unconditionally returning true on line 199. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to manipulate payment callbacks and modify order statuses by sending forged payment notifications via the `/wp-json/paygent/v1/check/` endpoint.
