Unauthenticated order fulfillment via unsigned forged webhooks
Published Jul 24, 2026 · Updated Jul 24, 2026
Authorization bypass in Payment Plugins for Stripe WooCommerce 4.0.7 and earlier allows remote attackers to mark pending orders as paid. The webhook controller accepts a forged charge.pending event when the selected webhook secret is blank, trusts attacker-controlled order and gateway metadata, and calls payment_complete() with an attacker-supplied transaction ID. The default blank-secret state exposes pending asynchronous orders to unauthorized payment status changes and downstream fulfillment, while a configured non-empty Stripe webhook secret blocks the bypass.
