CVE-2025-14294 is a vulnerability identified in the Razorpay for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 4.7.8. The root cause is a missing authentication mechanism in the getCouponList() function, where the permission callback checkAuthCredentials() erroneously always returns true, effectively bypassing any authentication or authorization controls. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to modify critical order data, specifically the billing and shipping contact information such as email addresses and phone numbers, by simply knowing or guessing the WooCommerce order ID. The vulnerability does not expose confidential data directly but compromises data integrity by enabling unauthorized changes to order details. The attack vector is remote and requires no privileges or user interaction, making exploitation straightforward. Although no known exploits are currently reported in the wild, the vulnerability poses a significant risk to e-commerce sites using this plugin, as attackers could manipulate order contact details to intercept communications, commit fraud, or disrupt order fulfillment. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 5.3, reflecting a medium severity level, with the vector indicating network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and impact limited to integrity loss without affecting confidentiality or availability.

For European organizations, particularly e-commerce businesses relying on WooCommerce integrated with Razorpay payment solutions, this vulnerability can lead to unauthorized modification of customer order information. This can result in fraudulent activities such as redirecting order confirmations, invoices, or shipping notifications to attacker-controlled contacts, potentially enabling financial fraud or identity theft. The integrity compromise may also disrupt order fulfillment processes, damaging customer trust and brand reputation. Although the vulnerability does not directly expose sensitive data, the ability to alter contact details can facilitate social engineering or phishing attacks. Given the widespread use of WooCommerce in Europe and Razorpay's growing adoption, especially among small to medium enterprises, the threat could affect a broad range of businesses. The absence of authentication requirements and ease of exploitation increase the risk of automated attacks targeting multiple orders. This could lead to operational disruptions and increased support costs for affected organizations.

Immediate mitigation should focus on restricting access to the vulnerable getCouponList() function by implementing custom authentication or authorization checks at the WordPress or plugin level, such as using hooks or filters to enforce capability checks before processing requests. Organizations should monitor WooCommerce order modifications for unusual changes in billing or shipping contact details, setting up alerts for suspicious activity. Applying any official patches or updates from Razorpay as soon as they become available is critical. In the absence of patches, temporarily disabling the Razorpay for WooCommerce plugin or replacing it with alternative payment solutions can reduce exposure. Additionally, implementing web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block unauthorized attempts to access order modification endpoints can help mitigate exploitation. Educating customer service teams to verify order changes through secondary channels can also reduce fraud impact. Regular security audits and penetration testing focusing on e-commerce workflows will help identify similar weaknesses.
