AI-suggested

Users should monitor the vendor advisory for updates. Until a fix is available, consider disabling the Hippoo Mobile App for WooCommerce plugin or restricting access to the affected REST API endpoints if possible. Avoid exposing the /wc-hippoo/v1/ext/ REST routes to untrusted networks.

Description

The Hippoo Mobile App for WooCommerce WordPress plugin up to version 1.9.4 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to gain administrator privileges. This occurs due to a logic error in permission handling functions that causes all REST API routes under /wc-hippoo/v1/ext/ to be accessible without authentication. Attackers can reset any WordPress user's password, including administrators, by sending a crafted POST request, leading to full site takeover.
