AI-analyzed exploit summary This exploit leverages a lack of origin authentication in the WooCommerce CardGate Payment Gateway plugin to replace critical settings (merchant ID, secret key) via IPN callback manipulation, allowing payment process bypass or redirection of payments.
Description
An issue was discovered in the CardGate Payments plugin through 3.1.15 for WooCommerce. Lack of origin authentication in the IPN callback processing function in cardgate/cardgate.php allows an attacker to remotely replace critical plugin settings (merchant ID, secret key, etc.) and therefore bypass the payment process (e.g., spoof an order status by manually sending an IPN callback request with a valid signature but without real payment) and/or receive all of the subsequent payments.
