CVE-2026-49059Network attack vector

Unauthenticated phishing redirects via unvalidated destination URLs

Published May 27, 2026 · Updated May 27, 2026

Open redirect in Meta for WooCommerce 3.7.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to send users to phishing sites through crafted links. The plugin accepts an attacker-supplied redirect URL without validating its destination; published records do not disclose the affected endpoint or handler. Exploitation requires a user to follow a crafted link or perform a prompted action, after which the browser leaves the trusted store for an attacker-chosen site.
