WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Paytm Payment Gateway < 2.8.9 - Unauthenticated Order Status Manipulation via Payment Callback
Description
The plugin does not verify that payment callbacks genuinely originate from the payment provider when its secret key has not been configured, which is its state immediately after activation, allowing unauthenticated attackers to change the status of arbitrary orders, including marking unpaid orders as paid and reducing stock.
