Dokan: AI Powered WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace Solution plugin for WordPress versions up to 5.2.1 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability via the 'password' parameter. Authenticated users with custom-level access or higher can exploit missing validation on a user-controlled key to change the WordPress password of any customer who has placed an order with the attacking vendor. This enables limited account takeover by logging in as that customer. Vendor-level access is required and can be self-registered if the public vendor registration option is enabled.
Dokan plugin for WordPress versions up to and including 5.0.2 contains a missing authorization check vulnerability in its CustomersController REST API. This flaw allows authenticated users with Vendor/Seller-level access or higher to read, modify, or delete any WordPress user account, including administrators. Exploiting this vulnerability by setting the password parameter on an administrator's account can lead to full site takeover.
The Dokan: AI Powered WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace Solution – Build Your Own Amazon, eBay, Etsy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Product SKU in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The malicious payload is delivered to site visitors — including unauthenticated users — when the store search widget inserts the unescaped AJAX response HTML into the DOM via jQuery's .html() method.
The Dokan: AI Powered WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace Solution – Build Your Own Amazon, eBay, Etsy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.4 via the 'id' parameter due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to read any other vendor's products — including unpublished draft and pending listings — exposing product names, prices, SKUs, and descriptions belonging to other vendors. The permission callbacks for both the collection endpoint and the single-item endpoint only verify the generic vendor capability ('dokan_view_product_menu' / 'dokandar'), which every vendor holds, rather than confirming the requested author ID or product ownership matches the authenticated user.
The Dokan: AI Powered WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace Solution – Build Your Own Amazon, eBay, Etsy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.3 via the change_order_status, add_order_note, delete_order_note, add_shipping_tracking_info, grant_access_to_download, and revoke_access_to_download AJAX handlers due to missing ownership validation on a user-controlled order ID key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom vendor-level access and above, to modify the status of arbitrary orders, add attacker-controlled notes to any order (including customer-facing notes that trigger WooCommerce notification emails to buyers), delete any order note or WordPress comment by ID regardless of ownership, inject fake shipping tracking information on any order, and grant or revoke downloadable-product permissions on any order in the marketplace. Critically, nonce validity is not a barrier to exploitation: each of these AJAX handlers generates and embeds its nonce on the authenticated vendor's own dashboard order pages (e.g., /dashboard/orders/?order_id=OWN_ORDER_ID), which the attacker legitimately controls. The attacker harvests a valid nonce from their own order detail page and replays it against a victim order ID — the nonce only proves the request originates from a logged-in session, not that the order belongs to that vendor. This directly rebuts the prior rejection reasoning that 'users cannot generate valid nonces on command': vendor users can and do generate valid nonces on demand simply by loading their own dashboard pages. Source-code analysis confirmed the vulnerable code path is present and unpatched through version 5.0.1.
The Dokan: AI Powered WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace Solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 4.3.1 via the '/dokan/v1/stores/{id}/reviews' REST API endpoint. This is due to the 'prepare_reviews_for_response' method including reviewer email addresses, usernames, and user IDs in the API response. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract email addresses, usernames, and user IDs of all customers who left reviews on any vendor's store. The Pro version of the plugin must be installed and activated, with store reviews enabled, in order to exploit the vulnerability.
The Dokan: AI Powered WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace Solution – Build Your Own Amazon, eBay, Etsy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in versions up to, and including, 4.2.4 via the `/wp-json/dokan/v1/settings` REST API endpoint due to missing validation on a user-controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with customer-level permissions and above, to read or modify other vendors' store settings including sensitive payment information (PayPal email, bank account details, routing numbers, IBAN, SWIFT codes), phone numbers, and addresses, and change PayPal email addresses to attacker-controlled addresses, enabling financial theft when the marketplace processes payouts.
