CVE-2025-58685 is a Missing Authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) identified in the Cecabank WooCommerce Plugin, versions up to 0.3.4. This plugin integrates Cecabank payment services into WooCommerce, a widely used e-commerce platform for WordPress. The vulnerability arises from improperly configured access control mechanisms, allowing unauthorized users to perform actions or access resources that should be restricted. Specifically, the plugin fails to enforce proper authorization checks on certain functions or endpoints, enabling attackers to exploit these weaknesses without requiring authentication or user interaction. According to the CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N), the attack can be executed remotely over the network with low attack complexity, no privileges, and no user interaction needed. The impact is limited to integrity, meaning attackers can modify or manipulate data or operations within the plugin’s scope but cannot directly affect confidentiality or availability. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, and no patches have been linked yet, indicating that the vulnerability is newly disclosed and may require immediate attention from users of the plugin.

For European organizations operating e-commerce sites using WooCommerce integrated with Cecabank payment services, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized manipulation of payment-related processes or data integrity issues. Attackers could potentially alter transaction parameters, payment statuses, or other critical e-commerce data, leading to financial discrepancies, fraud, or loss of customer trust. While confidentiality and availability are not directly impacted, integrity violations can have significant business consequences, including regulatory compliance issues under GDPR if transaction records are tampered with. The ease of exploitation without authentication increases the threat level, especially for organizations with high transaction volumes or those relying heavily on automated payment workflows. Additionally, the lack of user interaction requirement means attacks can be automated and scaled, potentially affecting multiple sites simultaneously.

Organizations should immediately audit their use of the Cecabank WooCommerce Plugin and restrict its exposure by limiting access to trusted networks or IP addresses where feasible. Until an official patch is released, consider disabling or removing the plugin if it is not critical to operations. For sites that must continue using the plugin, implement compensating controls such as Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious requests targeting plugin endpoints. Monitoring and logging of all payment-related transactions should be enhanced to detect anomalies indicative of exploitation attempts. Additionally, coordinate with the plugin vendor for timely updates and apply patches as soon as they become available. Conduct thorough testing in staging environments before deploying updates to production. Finally, review and strengthen overall WooCommerce and WordPress security configurations, including limiting plugin permissions and ensuring least privilege principles are enforced.
