Description
The Mailchimp for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 6.3 does not require authentication or verify ownership before loading a saved cart from a request-supplied identifier that is derived from a customer's email address, allowing an unauthenticated attacker who knows a customer's email address to confirm that the customer shops at the store and to read that customer's saved cart contents.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Mailchimp for WooCommerce plugin prior to version 6.3 contains an unauthenticated information disclosure flaw. An attacker can supply a request-sized identifier derived from a customer’s email address to load a saved shopping cart without authentication. This allows the attacker to verify that the person with that email has shopped at the site and to view the cart’s contents, exposing customer intent and potentially personal data. The vulnerability is an insecure direct object reference, allowing read-only access to private data.

Affected Systems

The flaw affects the Mailchimp for WooCommerce WordPress plugin. Users running any version earlier than 6.3 are susceptible; the issue is present in all builds before 6.3. No specific sub‑versions are listed beyond the major version cutoff.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability does not require prior authentication or knowledge of any system credentials; the exploit uses a public endpoint that accepts an email- derived identifier. Because the attack is unauthenticated and the payload is trivial to construct, the risk of exploitation is high for any site that uses the plugin and has customers with known or guessable email addresses. The CVSS score is 5.3, the EPSS score is < 1%, and it is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. These metrics indicate a moderate overall risk, but the lack of mitigations in the affected versions still presents a significant information disclosure concern.

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Mailchimp for WooCommerce to version 6.3 or later, where the issue is fixed.
  • If an upgrade cannot be performed immediately, restrict access to the cart‑loading endpoint so that only authenticated users can request saved carts, or disable the feature entirely.
  • Monitor the cart endpoint for anomalous requests and review logs for suspicious activity that may indicate exploitation attempts.
