Description
The SureCart WordPress plugin before 4.9.5 does not restrict which related objects an anonymous visitor may include when reading a single upsell funnel through its REST API, nor strip private fields from those objects, allowing unauthenticated users to read merchant-private catalog data such as pricing, commission, stock, SKU and tax internals, including unpublished products.

AI Analysis

Impact

This vulnerability is an information exposure flaw (CWE-200) affecting the REST API of the SureCart plugin for WordPress. The plugin does not restrict the 'expand' query parameter when a single upsell funnel is requested, allowing unauthenticated users to retrieve related objects such as products, taxes, and commissions. The API returns private fields—including pricing, commission details, stock levels, SKU identifiers, tax internal data, and unpublished product information—exposing merchant‑private catalog data that could be used for competitive intelligence or fraudulent activity.

Affected Systems

SureCart, a WordPress e‑commerce plugin, is affected in all installations running a pre‑4.9.5 version. Versions 4.9.5 and later contain a fix that enforces access control on the REST endpoint, preventing unauthorized exposure of private catalog data.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 5.3, and the EPSS score is less than 1%, indicating a very low probability of exploitation. Nevertheless, because any anonymous visitor can trigger the API call by specifying the 'expand' parameter, the threat is readily exploitable without authentication, resulting in a moderate confidentiality risk. While the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, the practical risk remains significant due to the ease of discovery with standard API testing tools.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade SureCart to version 4.9.5 or newer, which restricts access to private catalog data for unauthenticated requests.
  • Implement a firewall or access‑control rule that blocks unauthenticated requests to the REST API endpoint that exposes catalog data.
  • Configure WordPress role‑based access controls so that only authenticated users with appropriate capability can consume the affected REST endpoint.
