Description
The YITH WooCommerce Wishlist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 4.10.0 via the REST API endpoint and AJAX handler due to missing validation on user-controlled keys. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to discover any user's wishlist token ID, and subsequently rename the victim's wishlist without authorization (integrity impact). This can be exploited to target multi-user stores for defacement, social engineering attacks, mass tampering, and profiling at scale.

Impact

The YITH WooCommerce Wishlist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to an Insecure Direct Object Reference, allowing attackers to discover wishlist token IDs through the REST API and AJAX handler without authentication. This vulnerability, classified as CWE‑639, permits unauthenticated users to rename any user’s wishlist, compromising data integrity and enabling defacement, social engineering, and large‑scale profiling attacks.

Affected Systems

The vendor is YITH WooCommerce Wishlist from YIThemes. All releases up to and including version 4.10.0 are affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability carries a CVSS base score of 5.3 and an EPSS score of less than 1%, indicating a moderate severity but a low probability of exploitation as of the last assessment. It is not included in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers can exploit the flaw by accessing the exposed REST endpoint or AJAX route, identifying a wishlist token, and issuing a rename request. Because no authentication is required, the attack can be performed over the public network, but the need to discover valid tokens may reduce practicality.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update YITH WooCommerce Wishlist to a version higher than 4.10.0, where the IDOR issue has been fixed.
  • If an update cannot be performed immediately, restrict unauthenticated access to the plugin’s REST API endpoints and AJAX handlers by configuring web‑server access controls or disabling the endpoints via a firewall or plugin settings.
  • Implement logging of all wishlist renaming actions and monitor logs for abnormal activity, and consider temporarily disabling the rename feature through custom code or plugin settings while a patch is applied.
