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 the Premium Packages WordPress plugin at a version before 7.2.2 to be installed and active with its shopping-cart/ordering functionality in use; the vulnerable path is that the plugin trusts a client-supplied or stored cart price that an unauthenticated visitor can overwrite before checkout. No authentication, no user interaction, and no non-default configuration are stated as prerequisites (PR:N/UI:N), so default installations handling purchases are exposed. The practical limiting factors are that the site must actually use the plugin for paid orders and that impact is confined to order/pricing integrity (fraudulent totals) rather than data disclosure or service disruption; the exact request/parameter used to overwrite the price is not described in the available sources. |
| Impact | Signals are consistent and point to a genuine but non-emergency issue. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N, score 5.3 Medium) describes a remotely reachable, low-complexity flaw needing no authentication or user interaction, but with only limited integrity impact and no confidentiality or availability loss. EPSS is very low (0.14%, 4th percentile) and SSVC records Exploitation: none, so there is no indication of active or imminent exploitation; it is not in CISA KEV. However, SSVC marks it Automatable: yes with partial technical impact, and the vuln.today decision label is 'this_month', indicating it should be remediated on a routine priority cycle rather than deferred. One caveat: the raw CVSS score likely understates real-world business impact - the flaw permits unauthenticated price tampering enabling fraudulent orders (direct financial loss to the merchant), which the I:L/C:N/A:N scoring does not fully capture. This is a legitimate medium-priority fix driven by financial-fraud risk rather than a widespread exploitation threat; the low EPSS and SSVC Exploitation: none suggest it is not currently being mass-exploited. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated visitor adds a product to the shopping cart of a site running Premium Packages before 7.2.2, then manipulates the stored cart price (e.g., via the checkout request) to set an arbitrary total, and completes an order for the full-priced goods at a price of their choosing. No authentication or user interaction is required (AV:N/PR:N/UI:N). No public exploit identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Nov 01, 2026
Unauthenticated price tampering in the Premium Packages WordPress plugin before 7.2.2 lets visitors overwrite the stored price of cart items and place orders for any product at an arbitrary total, enabling fraudulent order values. The flaw is CWE-862 missing authorization, remotely reachable without credentials or user interaction (CVSS 3.1: 5.3, AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N), with impact confined to order and pricing integrity. No active exploitation or public exploit is identified at time of analysis; EPSS is 0.14% (4th percentile) and the priority label is this_month.
RemediationAI
Upgrade the Premium Packages WordPress plugin to 7.2.2 or later (Vendor-released patch: 7.2.2), which is the fix identified by the advisory at https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/38c4d58a-20a3-4309-ace7-5b567257c80e/ and tracked in NVD at https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-118184 . The supplied sources do not document a targeted workaround; if immediate upgrade is not possible, disabling the plugin or its shopping-cart/checkout/ordering functionality prevents unauthenticated cart-price overwrites and order creation at altered totals, at the cost of stopping paid purchases on the site.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected component is a WordPress e-commerce plugin whose shopping-cart and checkout flow stores item prices and uses them when creating orders. CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) matches the described behavior: an unauthenticated visitor can perform a state-changing overwrite of the stored cart price because the plugin does not enforce an authorization check on that operation, and the checkout then accepts the altered total. The CVSS vector confirms network reachability, low attack complexity, no privileges and no user interaction, with low integrity impact only; SSVC records exploitation as none, automatable as yes, and technical impact as partial. The exact request or parameter used to overwrite the price is not described in the available sources, and no CPE strings were supplied.
