Technical details

The PayPal IPN handler in plugin/PayPalYPT/ipnV2.php fails to verify that incoming IPN messages are bound to the site's merchant account before crediting wallets. An unauthenticated attacker can replay or forward genuine recurring-payment IPNs from their own PayPal account with a modified users_id parameter to credit another user's wallet on each billing cycle. The vulnerability requires network access to send HTTP POST/GET requests to the IPN endpoint but no authentication or user interaction.
