Guest-order cancellation via exposed cancel-order URL
Published Dec 20, 2023 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
An IDOR in GoCardless for WooCommerce 2.5.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to disclose guest-order data or cancel guest orders. The order-received path exposes a cancel-order URL before validating that a user-controlled order key authorizes access to the referenced order. No account is required; successful access compromises guest-order confidentiality and can change an order's state to canceled.
