Description
Joomla Extension - j2commerce.com - Predictable/forgeable order access token in J2Store 1.0.0-3.3.2, 4.0.0-4.0.22, 4.1.0-4.1.7 - Anyone who obtains the site's Joomla `secret` can compute a valid access token for *any* order on the site without ever having placed one, gaining guest access to that order's details and any purchased digital downloads. Because the token is never rotated, this exposure persists indefinitely even after the underlying secret-disclosure vector is patched, unless the Joomla secret itself is also rotated. The attack complexity (`AC:H`) is high because it depends on the secret already being known through a separate vector; it is not directly exploitable by an anonymous visitor with no other foothold.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability allows an attacker who knows the Joomla secret to compute a valid order access token. This token grants guest access to any order, exposing order details and digital downloads. The token is never rotated, so the exposure persists unless the Joomla secret itself is changed. The weakness is identified as CWE-1241, reflecting a predictable token.

Affected Systems

The affected product is j2commerce.com, including versions 1.0.0 through 3.3.2, 4.0.0 through 4.0.22, and 4.1.0 through 4.1.7. Any site running these releases is impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.3 indicates medium severity. Exploitation requires the attacker to obtain the Joomla secret, a condition that may stem from another compromise. Once the secret is known, the attacker can repeatedly generate order tokens and obtain order contents indefinitely because the token is static. The EPSS score is 0.00207 (<1%), and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, indicating no known public exploitation.
