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 an authenticated low-privilege WordPress account at Subscriber level (CVSS PR:L) on a site running ECPay Ecommerce for WooCommerce version 1.1.2606090 or earlier. Practical exploitability is greatly increased on stores that permit open customer/subscriber self-registration (the default for most WooCommerce shops), which lets an attacker obtain the needed account at will; sites that disable public registration substantially limit exposure. No user interaction (UI:N) and no non-default feature toggle are indicated in the description. Limiting factors: a valid subscriber session is mandatory, confidentiality is unaffected (C:N), and the specific privileged action abused is not detailed in the available data. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity, authenticated access-control flaw (CWE-862, Missing Authorization) rather than a high-priority emergency. The provided CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H = 7.1) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack requiring low-level privileges (PR:L - consistent with the 'Subscriber' role named in the title), with no confidentiality impact, limited integrity impact, and high availability impact. The PR:L requirement is the single most important risk-limiting factor: an attacker must already hold a valid low-privilege (subscriber) account on the target WordPress site, so this is not a pre-auth mass-exploitation bug. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public POC were provided in the intelligence, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis - this contrasts sharply with the 7.1 CVSS and argues against treating it as an immediate, widely-exploited threat. The A:H (high availability) rating is somewhat unusual for a broken-access-control/missing-authorization issue and is not substantiated by the one-line description; this should be verified with Patchstack/the vendor, as the availability impact may be overstated. Overall: patch in normal cycle, with elevated urgency only on sites that allow open subscriber/customer registration (common for WooCommerce stores). |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker registers a free subscriber/customer account on a WooCommerce store running ECPay Ecommerce for WooCommerce <= 1.1.2606090 - trivial where open registration is enabled. Using that authenticated session, they invoke a plugin endpoint or action that fails to check the caller's authorization (CWE-862), performing an operation intended for higher-privileged users. No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis, and low attack complexity (AC:L) means no special timing or conditions are needed once a subscriber account is held. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 06, 2026
Authenticated Subscriber-level attackers can exploit missing authorization checks in ECPay Ecommerce for WooCommerce versions up to 1.1.2606090 to perform actions that may alter store integrity or cause a high availability impact. The flaw requires only a low-privileged account, which is readily available on sites with open registration, but confidentiality is not affected. No public exploit code has been identified, and the vulnerability is not known to be actively exploited.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis. As a workaround, consider temporarily disabling the ECPay Ecommerce for WooCommerce plugin if it is not essential, or restrict subscriber-level accounts by disabling open registration and ensuring only trusted users can register. Monitor the Patchstack advisory and the vendor's website for a patched version, and update promptly once available. Applying least-privilege principles to WordPress roles and auditing subscriber permissions may reduce exposure. Note that disabling the plugin will remove its payment processing functionality, which may impact store operations.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is a missing authorization (CWE-862) issue in the WordPress plugin ECPay Ecommerce for WooCommerce, which integrates ECPay payment services into WooCommerce stores. The plugin fails to verify that a user has the necessary capabilities before executing certain functions, allowing a Subscriber-level user to invoke privileged actions. With a CVSS vector of AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H, the flaw is network-exploitable with low complexity, requires authentication, and can result in low integrity impact and high availability impact, potentially allowing an attacker to disrupt store operations or modify limited data. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:techsupport:ecpay_ecommerce_for_woocommerce:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* indicates all versions up to the fixed release are affected.

DescriptionCVE.org
Subscriber Broken Access Control in ECPay Ecommerce for WooCommerce <= 1.1.2606090 versions.
Executive ViewAI
ECPay Ecommerce for WooCommerce, used by online stores to process payments, contains a high-severity authorization flaw in versions up to 1.1.2606090 that could allow low-privileged users to alter store data or cause service disruptions. This vulnerability poses a risk to e-commerce operations, potentially impacting revenue and customer trust. Given the absence of a vendor patch, leadership should prioritize immediate mitigation efforts to protect store integrity and availability.
Restrict access to the vulnerable plugin functionality to trusted users, disable open registration if not required, monitor logs for unauthorized changes, and deploy a web application firewall (WAF) with virtual patching rules if available.
