The WP Easy Pay - Payment and Donation form Builder for Square plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.0. 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 permanently delete arbitrary posts, pages, and custom post types (bypassing the trash via force deletion) or change any published post to draft status.

The root cause is CWE-862 missing authorization: the plugin's action handlers in wpep-setup.php perform no capability or nonce verification before invoking destructive WordPress content operations. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires an authenticated account with subscriber-level access or above (PR:L) on a site running WP Easy Pay for Square ≤4.5.0 - practical mass exploitation therefore depends on the target allowing open/self-service user registration. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine but moderate-priority issue. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | The primary fix is to upgrade the WP Easy Pay - Payment and Donation Form Builder for Square plugin to a release newer than 4.5.0; the vendor trac changeset referenced in the advisory (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&old=3593500%40wp-easy-pay&new=3593500%40wp-easy-pay) documents the upstream code change, but this data does not independently confirm the number of the released patched version, so verify the current plugin version and its changelog, or follow the Wordfence advisory (https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/cfe52386-bfdc-452f-8dd3-a12b3e39f296?source=cve) for the fixed build before assuming you are remediated. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
