Upgrade the Directorist plugin to version 8.11 or later, where this authorization bypass vulnerability has been fixed. No other mitigation is required as the issue is resolved in the official update.

Description

A vulnerability in the Directorist: AI-Powered Business Directory, Listings & Classified Ads WordPress plugin before version 8.11 allows any authenticated user to create payment-attempt records for orders that do not belong to them. This occurs because the plugin does not verify ownership of the order targeted by its checkout payment-retry REST action.
