Technical details

The CorvusPay WooCommerce Payment Gateway plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a missing authorization check (CWE-862) in all versions up to and including 2.7.4. The vulnerability exists within the REST API endpoint `/wp-json/corvuspay/cancel/`, which fails to verify if the requester has the appropriate permissions to modify order statuses. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by providing an arbitrary order number to the endpoint, resulting in the cancellation of that specific WooCommerce order. This issue was addressed in version 2.7.5 or later via a changeset that implemented proper authorization checks.
