AI Analysis

Impact

The Sunshine Photo Cart WordPress plugin versions before 3.7 fails to validate that a client‑supplied price identifier belongs to the item being purchased when it is added to the cart. An unauthenticated user can therefore supply a price identifier that corresponds to a lower price defined elsewhere on the site. This allows the user to buy items at that lower price and complete the order, directly causing financial loss for the site owner.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites running the Sunshine Photo Cart plugin with a version older than 3.7, including all releases 3.6 and earlier, are affected. The vulnerability remains present until the plugin is upgraded to version 3.7 or later.

Risk and Exploitability

The EPSS score is 0.00136 (i.e., less than 1%) and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The CVSS score of 5.3 classifies this flaw as moderate severity. Nevertheless, the exploit path is straightforward: an attacker issues a crafted request to the cart endpoint with a manipulated price identifier without needing authentication. This bypasses the intended price validation and can lead to immediate revenue loss. The lack of authentication coupled with the plugin's permissive handling of price IDs makes the vulnerability likely to be abused if discovered by an attacker.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update Sunshine Photo Cart to version 3.7 or later to remove the price‑identifier validation flaw
  • Disable or block the ability for unauthenticated users to submit arbitrary price identifiers by implementing server‑side validation that enforces the intended price ID for each product
  • Audit recent orders placed before the fix for underpriced items and reconcile revenue or issue refunds as necessary
