Dokan EUVD-2026-15555

Requires authenticated user account (PR:L) on Dokan dokan-lite version <= 4.2.4. Attacker with valid login credentials can exploit authentication bypass via alternate path/channel remotely without victim interaction to gain high-impact unauthorized access.

Real-world risk assessment is constrained by the absence of CVSS vector data, EPSS score, and KEV status, which limits quantitative severity analysis. However, the vulnerability classification as an authentication bypass (CWE-288) in a multivendor e-commerce platform represents significant risk due to the potential for unauthorized access to vendor accounts, customer data, payment information, and marketplace administration. The fact that Patchstack has identified and tracked this vulnerability suggests active awareness in the security community. Without CVSS vector details, we cannot determine attack vector (network vs. local), attack complexity, or required privileges; however, authentication bypass vulnerabilities typically assume network-based exploitation with low complexity. The presence of a patched version (4.2.4 is listed as affected through this version, implying patches exist in later versions) suggests vendor acknowledgment. This should be treated as a moderate-to-high priority for all organizations running Dokan versions up to 4.2.4, particularly those handling sensitive marketplace data or payment information.

An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by accessing a protected Dokan endpoint through an alternate, unprotected channel or pathway—for example, by directly calling an internal API function or accessing an administrative feature without going through the normal authentication gateway. Without valid credentials, the attacker could impersonate a vendor, create unauthorized marketplace listings, modify pricing, access customer orders, or extract sensitive payment information. The network-based nature of WordPress plugins means exploitation could occur remotely, potentially affecting thousands of multivendor marketplaces running vulnerable versions.
