Technical Analysis
The StoreGrowth WordPress plugin prior to version 2.1.2 does not validate browser-supplied product prices on two unauthenticated actions. This lack of authorization allows unauthenticated attackers to manipulate product prices arbitrarily, which then persist through to the checkout total when the Buy One Get One (BOGO) offer feature is active. This vulnerability is classified under CWE-862 (Missing Authorization). There is no vendor advisory or patch information currently available, and no known exploits in the wild have been reported.
Potential Impact
An unauthenticated attacker can add products to the shopping cart at attacker-chosen prices, potentially allowing them to purchase products at significantly reduced prices or free when the BOGO offer feature is enabled. This impacts the integrity of the pricing and checkout process but does not affect confidentiality or availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a patch is available, consider disabling the BOGO offer feature or restricting access to the affected actions if possible to mitigate exploitation risk.
