Exploitation Conditions

No special conditions beyond having the plugin active and a reachable checkout: remote unauthenticated exploitation (AV:N/PR:N/UI:N) against default configurations of the Easy PayPal & Stripe Buy Now Button plugin on versions before 2.0.6. The specific prerequisite is that the payment amount is taken from a client-supplied field and never recomputed server-side, so the attacker only needs to modify that field in the checkout request. Limiting factors: the target site must run this specific plugin at a vulnerable version, and impact is confined to transaction price manipulation (financial loss to the merchant) with no data exposure or service disruption; upgrading to 2.0.6 removes the condition.

Impact

This is a server-side validation / business-logic flaw (CWE class: improper validation of a client-supplied value) in which the purchase amount is trusted from the client instead of being recomputed on the server. The provided CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N, base 5.3) is internally consistent with the description: network-reachable, low complexity, no authentication (PR:N) and no user interaction, with impact limited to Integrity-Low (an attacker tampers with the transacted price) and no confidentiality or availability impact. A public exploit exists (WPScan), but there is no CISA KEV listing and no EPSS score in the input, so there is no evidence of active or widespread exploitation. The 5.3/MEDIUM base score understates the practical business consequence - direct financial loss through underpayment for goods/services - because CVSS does not model monetary fraud well; conversely, the real-world footprint is small (a niche WordPress payment-button plugin), so this is a targeted merchant-fraud risk rather than a mass-exploitation priority. Net: genuine and easily abused where the plugin is installed, but low aggregate risk due to limited deployment. Note: CWE is listed as N/A and no EPSS/KEV data was supplied, so exploitation-probability signals are absent and cannot be compared.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker browsing a shop that uses the plugin intercepts the checkout request (e.g., via browser dev tools or a proxy) and rewrites the client-supplied price field to an arbitrarily low value such as $0.01 before it reaches PayPal/Stripe. Because the server never recomputes the amount, the order is accepted at the attacker-chosen price. A public exploit is available via WPScan and the attack is remote, unauthenticated, and low-complexity (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N).

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 02, 2026

Price manipulation in the Easy PayPal & Stripe Buy Now Button WordPress plugin before 2.0.6 lets remote attackers set an arbitrarily low purchase price by editing a client-supplied amount field that the plugin never recomputes on the server, so a buyer can pay far less than the merchant intended. The flaw is remotely reachable without authentication or user interaction (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N, 5.3) and affects any site running the plugin at a version below 2.0.6 with an exposed checkout. Impact is limited to transaction integrity and direct financial loss to the merchant - no data confidentiality or availability impact - and publicly available exploit code exists, though there is no confirmed active exploitation (CISA KEV).

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: 2.0.6 for the Easy PayPal & Stripe Buy Now Button plugin - upgrading to 2.0.6 removes the client-supplied-amount condition, and this should be treated as the primary fix; apply it via the WordPress plugin updater or by reinstalling the 2.0.6 build, and confirm the deployed version afterwards. If an immediate upgrade is not possible, the most reliable compensating control is to deactivate the plugin until it can be patched, at the cost of losing all buy-now/PayPal/Stripe checkout functionality on the site. Other interim measures are weaker and carry trade-offs: adding server-side amount validation or a checkout hook that recomputes the price from the product catalog requires custom code and must be re-verified after the upgrade; a WAF rule blocking requests that carry unexpected or modified amount parameters can help but risks false positives that break legitimate checkouts; and monitoring/rate-limiting payment endpoints may reduce abuse without fixing the underlying flaw. Reconciliation of recent transactions against expected catalog prices is advisable to detect any underpayments that already occurred. The vendor and WPScan advisory detail is at https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/7c1faee8-628a-41dc-a5f0-afbc56480a18/, and publicly available exploit code means patching should not be deferred.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This is a business-logic / server-side validation defect in a WordPress e-commerce plugin that bridges PayPal and Stripe checkout flows. The plugin trusts a client-supplied field for the payment amount rather than deriving the price from server-side product data, which corresponds to the CWE class 'improper validation of a client-supplied value' (the root-cause class cited in our independent assessment; no explicit CWE ID was supplied in the input). Because the amount is taken verbatim from the request, an attacker never needs to bypass authentication, encryption, or an input filter - they simply alter the value in the checkout request and the payment is initiated for the modified price. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:unknown:easy_paypal_&_stripe_buy_now_button:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* records the plugin name but an unresolved vendor, so the identifier alone does not pin a version; version scoping comes from the advisory, which states all releases before 2.0.6 are affected. The vulnerability is reachable over the network with no privileges and no user interaction, and the scope remains unchanged (S:U), with only the integrity of the transaction affected (I:L).

DescriptionCVE.org

The Easy PayPal & Stripe Buy Now Button WordPress plugin before 2.0.6 does not derive the payment amount on the server, taking it from a client-supplied field, so an unauthenticated attacker sets an arbitrary lower price for a purchase.
