CVE-2026-3460: CWE-20 Improper Input Validation in xjb REST API TO MiniProgram
The REST API TO MiniProgram plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.2. This is due to the permission callback (update_user_wechatshop_info_permissions_check) only validating that the supplied 'openid' parameter corresponds to an existing WordPress user, while the callback function (update_user_wechatshop_info) uses a separate, attacker-controlled 'userid' parameter to determine which user's metadata gets modified, with no verification that the 'openid' and 'userid' belong to the same user. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify arbitrary users' store-related metadata (storeinfo, storeappid, storename) via the 'userid' REST API parameter.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-3460 is an improper input validation vulnerability in the xjb REST API TO MiniProgram WordPress plugin. The issue arises because the permission callback validates the 'openid' parameter to ensure it belongs to an existing user, but the update function uses a separate 'userid' parameter to identify which user's metadata to modify. There is no verification that the 'openid' and 'userid' correspond to the same user, enabling authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access or higher to modify store-related metadata (storeinfo, storeappid, storename) of arbitrary users via the REST API. This vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 5.1.2. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 5.3, indicating medium severity. No patch or remediation details are provided in the available data.
Potential Impact
Authenticated users with Subscriber-level access or higher can modify arbitrary users' store-related metadata, potentially leading to unauthorized changes in user data related to the MiniProgram store. There is no indication of confidentiality or availability impact, only integrity is affected. No known exploits are reported in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict access to the REST API TO MiniProgram plugin to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity related to user metadata changes. Avoid granting Subscriber-level or higher access to untrusted users. Follow vendor updates for official patches or fixes.
