Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: woocommerce
Product: WooCommerce PayPal Payments

Description

The WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Disclosure due to an Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.2 via the `enqueue_paypal_insights_script_on_order_received()` function due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to obtain sensitive order information including order keys, which can then be leveraged to access full customer billing details (name, email, phone, address) via the WooCommerce Store API within a 10-minute grace period after order creation.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-14073 describes an authorization bypass vulnerability in the WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin for WordPress versions up to and including 3.3.2. The flaw is an insecure direct object reference (CWE-639) caused by missing validation on a user-controlled key in the enqueue_paypal_insights_script_on_order_received() function. This allows unauthenticated attackers to retrieve sensitive order keys and subsequently access customer billing information such as name, email, phone, and address through the WooCommerce Store API during a 10-minute grace period after order creation.

Potential Impact

An unauthenticated attacker can disclose sensitive customer order information including billing details by exploiting the insecure direct object reference vulnerability. This exposure is limited to a 10-minute window after order creation. The vulnerability does not impact integrity or availability but compromises confidentiality of customer data.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. No official fix or patch is currently documented. Until a patch is available, users should consider restricting access to the WooCommerce Store API or monitoring for suspicious activity related to order keys during the 10-minute grace period.
