CVE-2026-16058: CWE-639 Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key in YayCurrency
YayCurrency WordPress plugin versions before 3.3.5 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability. Several multi-vendor integration handlers do not perform capability or ownership checks and are accessible to unauthenticated users. This allows attackers to read sensitive store information such as order totals, vendors' earnings, balance ledgers, and withdrawal histories by iterating identifiers.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
