What the vulnerability does

01Description

The Fortis for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to an inverted nonce check in the 'check_fortis_notify_response' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update arbitrary WooCommerce order statuses to paid/processing/completed, effectively allowing them to mark orders as paid without payment.

Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms

02Summary

Fortis for WooCommerce versions up to 1.2.0 lack proper authorization checks, allowing unauthenticated attackers to modify data through the plugin. The vulnerability requires only network access and no user interaction. Site administrators should update to a version newer than 1.2.0 to prevent unauthorized modifications.
