Publication date: 2026-10-21

Last updated on: 2026-10-21

Assigner: WPScan

Description

The Cart Abandonment Recovery for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 2.2.0 does not verify the integrity of its cart-recovery token before acting on it and still accepts an unsigned legacy token format, allowing unauthenticated attackers who know a victim's cart session identifier to modify that victim's abandoned-cart record, for example unsubscribing them from recovery emails or applying an arbitrary coupon to their restored cart.

Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability affects the Cart Abandonment Recovery for WooCommerce plugin before version 2.2.0. It allows unauthenticated attackers to manipulate a victim's abandoned-cart record by exploiting an unsigned legacy token format. The plugin does not verify the token's integrity, enabling attackers who know a victim's cart session identifier to perform actions like unsubscribing from recovery emails or applying arbitrary coupons.

Detection Guidance

Check if the installed version of the Cart Abandonment Recovery for WooCommerce plugin is below 2.2.0. Use commands like 'wp plugin list' in WordPress or inspect the plugin directory for version details.

Impact Analysis

If you use the vulnerable plugin version, attackers could modify your abandoned cart without authentication. This might lead to unwanted changes like unsubscribing you from recovery emails or applying coupons to your cart. It does not directly expose sensitive data but could disrupt your shopping experience.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability does not directly impact compliance with GDPR or HIPAA as it does not involve unauthorized data access or disclosure. However, if the plugin handles personal data during cart recovery, unauthorized modifications could indirectly affect data integrity or user consent, potentially raising compliance concerns.

Mitigation Strategies

Update the Cart Abandonment Recovery for WooCommerce plugin to version 2.2.0 or later immediately to patch the vulnerability.
