DescriptionCVE.org

The Invoice123 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.0. 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 overwrite the plugin's API key stored in wp_options, modify invoice plugin settings, and alter WooCommerce tax rate data in the wp_woocommerce_tax_rates table.

AnalysisAI

Authorization bypass in the Invoice123 WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 1.7.0) permits authenticated attackers holding only subscriber-level accounts to overwrite the plugin's external API key, modify invoice configuration settings, and directly alter WooCommerce tax rate records in the database. The root cause is absent capability checks in the plugin's admin-page handlers, meaning low-privilege users can invoke privileged administrative actions over the network. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability is classified as CWE-862 (Missing Authorization), meaning the plugin registers WordPress admin-page or AJAX action handlers without calling current_user_can() or an equivalent capability check before executing privileged logic. The vulnerable code is confirmed present in two files across both the 1.6.8 and 1.7.0 tagged releases in the WordPress plugin repository (slug: saskaita123-lt): S123_ApiKey.php at lines 21 and 29 (governing API key storage in wp_options) and S123_InvoiceSettings.php at lines 18, 26, and 65 (governing invoice plugin configuration and WooCommerce tax rate writes to the wp_woocommerce_tax_rates table). The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N confirms the handlers are reachable over the network with no interaction from a higher-privileged user, and that exploitation complexity is low once a subscriber-level session is established. No CPE identifiers were provided in the intelligence.

RemediationAI

The primary remediation is to update the Invoice123 plugin beyond version 1.7.0; the upstream fix commit is visible at the WordPress plugin Trac changeset (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&old=3594935%40saskaita123-lt&new=3594935%40saskaita123-lt), but the exact patched release version is not confirmed - verify the current version on the WordPress.org plugin page before advising an upgrade target. The Wordfence threat intelligence entry (https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/7d4e685a-0462-447f-a639-4f95d5aa27ab) should be monitored for updated patch version confirmation. As a compensating control while patching, disable open user registration on the WordPress site (Settings > General, uncheck 'Anyone can register') to prevent anonymous users from obtaining the subscriber accounts needed to exploit this flaw - note this affects legitimate sign-up workflows. Additionally, audit the wp_options table for unexpected changes to the Invoice123 API key and review the wp_woocommerce_tax_rates table for unauthorized tax rate modifications as indicators of prior exploitation.
