Technical Summary

The RestroPress – Online Food Ordering System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in versions 3.0.0 to 3.1.9.2. This is due to the plugin exposing user private tokens and API data via the /wp-json/wp/v2/users REST API endpoint. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to forge JWT tokens for other users, including administrators, and authenticate as them.

Potential Impact

Severity is CRITICAL (CVSS 9.8). Depending on deployment context, affected components may be exposed to unauthorized actions or data integrity risk.

Exploitability Assessment

Exploitability is assessed as Very High based on remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites.

Primary risk drivers: remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites

Mitigation Recommendations

Validate affected product versions, prioritize patching, and monitor references for vendor remediation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, apply compensating controls and limit exposure of vulnerable surfaces.

Detection & Monitoring

Track authentication anomalies, unexpected file writes, and suspicious plugin API activity around affected components.

Business Impact Lens

Prioritize remediation where affected components process customer data, admin sessions, or Internet-exposed workflows.
