Executive Summary

This vulnerability affects the Paymob for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before version 4.1.14. It allows unauthenticated attackers to write a saved card token to any user's account via a webhook due to missing request signature verification on the card-token branch. Attackers can also enumerate registered accounts.

Detection Guidance

Check if your Paymob for WooCommerce plugin version is below 4.1.14. Monitor webhook logs for unauthorized card-token writes or account enumeration attempts. Review network traffic for suspicious requests to the card-token branch of the payment webhook.

Impact Analysis

Unauthenticated attackers could add saved payment tokens to any user account, potentially leading to unauthorized transactions. They could also identify valid registered accounts for further attacks.

Mitigation Strategies

Update the Paymob for WooCommerce plugin to version 4.1.14 or later immediately. Disable the card-token webhook branch if not required. Implement request signature verification for all webhook branches.
