CVE-2026-3124 Details
Description
The Download Monitor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.7 via the executePayment() function due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to complete arbitrary pending orders by exploiting a mismatch between the PayPal transaction token and the local order, allowing theft of paid digital goods by paying a minimal amount for a low-cost item and using that payment token to finalize a high-value order.
A vulnerability allowing Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) has been identified in the Download Monitor plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 5.1.7. The issue arises in the executePayment() function, where insufficient validation of a user-controlled key allows unauthenticated attackers to complete arbitrary pending orders. Exploitation involves manipulating the PayPal transaction token to match a local order, enabling the theft of digital goods by paying a minimal amount for a low-cost item and using that token to finalize a high-value order.
Users are advised to update the Download Monitor plugin to version 5.1.8 or later.
