MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires a WordPress site running the SUMIT Payment Gateway for WooCommerce plugin at a version before 4.0.0 with the SUMIT gateway enabled and at least one pending order present. The attacker must first obtain a valid payment identifier from any single genuine SUMIT payment (easily self-generated via a legitimate low-value purchase), then replay it against the confirmation flow. No authentication, no privileges, and no victim interaction are required (PR:N/UI:N). The practical limiting factor is the narrow deployment of this specific gateway plugin and the need to possess one real payment identifier, not any access control. |
| Impact | This is a CWE-863 broken-authorization / payment-logic flaw rated CVSS 5.3 (Medium). The provided vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N is internally consistent with the description: network-reachable, low complexity, no privileges, no user interaction, with impact limited to integrity (C:N/A:N, I:L) - the attacker can falsely flip an order's state to 'paid' but cannot read data or degrade availability. Exploitation signals: publicly available exploit code exists (reported by WPScan), but there is NO CISA KEV listing and NO EPSS score was supplied, so widespread automated exploitation cannot be confirmed from the data - the risk is best characterized as opportunistic fraud against a specific plugin rather than mass exploitation. No SSVC decision data was provided. The real-world priority is driven less by the modest 5.3 score and more by the direct financial-fraud outcome (obtaining goods/services without paying), which matters acutely to any merchant running this gateway; for everyone else the narrow deployment footprint keeps aggregate risk low. The CVSS vector and the description align with no major conflict. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker places a small legitimate order through a store using the SUMIT gateway and captures the payment identifier returned by the provider. They then create a new, higher-value pending order and replay that same captured identifier to the confirmation endpoint; because the plugin does not bind the confirmation to the specific order or validate the amount, the second order is marked paid and fulfilled without payment. A public exploit is available via WPScan, and no authentication or user interaction is required. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 21, 2026
Unauthenticated attackers can mark a pending WooCommerce order as paid by replaying a payment identifier captured from any single genuine SUMIT transaction, because the SUMIT Payment Gateway plugin before 4.0.0 fails to bind the provider payment to the target order and does not compare the payment amount to the order total. The flaw is CWE-863 incorrect authorization and is rated CVSS 5.3 (Medium) with a network vector requiring no privileges or user interaction. Publicly available exploit code exists; no CISA KEV active-exploitation confirmation was provided.
RemediationAI
Upgrade SUMIT Payment Gateway for WooCommerce to 4.0.0 or later; this is the vendor-released patch, documented in the WPScan advisory at https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/751aa9b8-761e-4982-8708-6a746fddef09/. If upgrading cannot be performed immediately, disable the SUMIT gateway and use an alternative payment method until the plugin is patched; the trade-off is loss of SUMIT payment processing. As a temporary compensating control, add server-side validation that binds each SUMIT payment identifier to the specific WooCommerce order and verifies that the captured amount equals the order total before changing the order status to paid, and reconcile pending orders for unexpected paid status; this requires custom development, may be bypassed if any confirmation path is left unvalidated, and should be removed after patching. Publicly available exploit code exists, so prioritize upgrade on sites with the gateway enabled.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The issue sits in the WordPress plugin SUMIT Payment Gateway for WooCommerce, which integrates WooCommerce order handling with the SUMIT payment provider. CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization) describes the root cause: the plugin's confirmation flow trusts a payment identifier without verifying that the identifier belongs to the order being completed or that the paid amount matches the WooCommerce order total. A remote unauthenticated attacker can therefore replay a valid payment identifier obtained from any legitimate purchase, including a low-value self-generated one, to transition a pending order to paid. The supplied CPE is cpe:2.3:a:unknown:sumit_payment_gateway_for_woocommerce:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* with an unknown vendor and wildcard version, so asset inventory should rely on the plugin slug, installed version, and the EUVD affected range rather than exact CPE matching.

Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
The SUMIT Payment Gateway for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 4.0.0 does not bind the payment it confirms with the provider to the order being completed, nor check the payment amount against the order total, allowing unauthenticated users to mark a pending order as paid by replaying a payment identifier obtained from any single genuine payment.
