Email Redirection Flaw in ShopMonitor.io WordPress Plugin

Publication date: 2026-07-31

Last updated on: 2026-07-31

Assigner: WPScan

Description
The ShopMonitor.io WordPress plugin before 1.2.0 does not properly restrict its email-rerouting test mode, gating it behind a trusted-source check that is satisfiable with client-supplied request headers, allowing unauthenticated attackers to redirect outgoing emails, including the WordPress administrator password-reset email, to an address they control and take over the administrator account.

Executive Summary

The ShopMonitor.io WordPress plugin before version 1.2.0 has a flaw where its email-rerouting test mode is not properly restricted. Attackers can bypass security checks using client-supplied request headers to redirect outgoing emails, including password-reset emails for WordPress administrators, to their own email addresses. This allows them to take over the administrator account.

Detection Guidance

Check the installed version of the ShopMonitor.io WordPress plugin. If it is below 1.2.0, the vulnerability is likely present. You can verify this via the WordPress admin panel under Plugins or by inspecting the plugin files on the server.

Impact Analysis

If you use the ShopMonitor.io plugin version below 1.2.0, an unauthenticated attacker could gain full administrative access to your WordPress site by intercepting and redirecting password-reset emails. This could lead to complete site compromise, data theft, or unauthorized changes.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, which may violate compliance requirements under GDPR or HIPAA if personal or health information is exposed. Unauthorized administrative access could result in data breaches, triggering legal and regulatory penalties.

Mitigation Strategies

Update the ShopMonitor.io plugin to version 1.2.0 or later immediately. If updating is not possible, consider disabling the plugin temporarily until an update is applied. Review email logs for suspicious redirections and monitor for unauthorized administrative actions.
