DescriptionCVE.org

The Abandoned Cart Lite for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 6.8.2 does not protect the integrity of its cart-recovery tokens or bind them to the requesting account, allowing unauthenticated attackers to forge a recovery link that logs them in as another user when the automatic-login option is enabled.

AnalysisAI

Authentication bypass in the Abandoned Cart Lite for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 6.8.2 allows unauthenticated attackers to forge cart-recovery links that log them in as arbitrary users when the automatic-login feature is enabled. Because recovery tokens are neither integrity-protected nor bound to the requesting account, an attacker can craft a link that authenticates them as a victim, yielding full account takeover (SSVC technical impact: total). Publicly available exploit code exists (WPScan), though it is not listed in CISA KEV and EPSS is low (0.14%).

Technical ContextAI

The affected component is the Abandoned Cart Lite for WooCommerce plugin, a WordPress/WooCommerce e-commerce add-on that emails customers a 'recovery link' to resume an abandoned checkout, optionally logging them in automatically. The root cause is CWE-287 (Improper Authentication): the cart-recovery token functions as an authentication credential but lacks cryptographic integrity protection and is not bound to a specific user/session. An attacker who can predict, manipulate, or forge the token parameter can therefore have it resolve to an account other than their own. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:unknown:abandoned_cart_lite_for_woocommerce covers all versions prior to 6.8.2; the vulnerability only becomes exploitable for login when the plugin's automatic-login-on-recovery option is enabled.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade the Abandoned Cart Lite for WooCommerce plugin to version 6.8.2 or later, which is the fixed release per the WPScan advisory (https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/c94475c8-d129-4735-b599-5094efb20cb8/). If you cannot patch immediately, the most direct compensating control is to disable the plugin's automatic-login option in the abandoned-cart recovery settings, which removes the auto-authentication behavior that turns a forged token into account takeover (trade-off: recovered customers must log in manually, slightly reducing recovery conversion). As a stronger stopgap, deactivate the plugin entirely until upgraded (trade-off: loss of abandoned-cart recovery email functionality), and consider WAF rules to scrutinize or rate-limit access to the cart-recovery endpoint. After patching, review logs for anomalous recovery-link logins and consider invalidating existing sessions.
