CVE-2025-69347: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key in Convers Lab WPSubscription
Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key vulnerability in Convers Lab WPSubscription subscription allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects WPSubscription: from n/a through <= 1.8.10.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-69347 is an authorization bypass vulnerability found in the Convers Lab WPSubscription plugin for WordPress, affecting versions up to and including 1.8.10. The vulnerability stems from incorrectly configured access control mechanisms that rely on a user-controlled key parameter. Attackers can exploit this flaw by manipulating the key to bypass authorization checks, thereby gaining unauthorized access to subscription management functions or data. This bypass undermines the security model of the plugin, which is designed to restrict access based on user roles or subscription status. The vulnerability does not require prior authentication or user interaction, making it easier for remote attackers to exploit. While no public exploits have been observed, the vulnerability's nature suggests that attackers could modify subscription details, access sensitive subscriber information, or disrupt subscription services. The lack of a CVSS score indicates the need for an independent severity assessment. Given the plugin's role in managing paid subscriptions, the vulnerability could lead to financial loss, data breaches, and reputational damage for affected organizations. The vulnerability was reserved at the end of 2025 and published in March 2026, with no patches currently available, emphasizing the importance of proactive mitigation.
Potential Impact
The impact of CVE-2025-69347 on organizations worldwide can be significant, especially for those relying on WPSubscription to manage paid subscriptions or membership access. Unauthorized access to subscription management functions could allow attackers to alter subscription statuses, grant themselves or others unauthorized access, or extract sensitive subscriber data such as personal information and payment details. This can lead to financial losses, regulatory compliance violations (e.g., GDPR), and erosion of customer trust. Additionally, attackers could disrupt subscription services, causing availability issues and operational downtime. The ease of exploitation without authentication increases the risk of widespread attacks, particularly on WordPress sites that often have limited security hardening. Organizations with large subscriber bases or those in industries heavily dependent on subscription revenue models are particularly vulnerable. The absence of known exploits currently provides a window for remediation, but the potential for rapid weaponization exists once details become widely known.
Mitigation Recommendations
To mitigate CVE-2025-69347, organizations should first monitor official channels from Convers Lab for patches or updates addressing this vulnerability and apply them promptly once available. In the interim, administrators should restrict access to subscription management endpoints by implementing web application firewall (WAF) rules that limit access to trusted IPs or authenticated users only. Reviewing and tightening access control configurations within the WPSubscription plugin and WordPress roles is critical to prevent unauthorized privilege escalation. Input validation and sanitization should be enforced on any parameters controlling authorization keys to prevent manipulation. Employing security plugins that detect and block suspicious requests can provide additional protection. Regular security audits and penetration testing focused on access control mechanisms will help identify and remediate similar issues. Finally, organizations should maintain comprehensive backups and monitor logs for unusual subscription-related activities to enable rapid detection and response to exploitation attempts.
