CVE-2025-14843: Wizit Gateway for WooCommerce <= 1.3.1 - Missing Authentication to Unauthenticated Arbitrary Order Cancellation
The Wizit Gateway for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Unauthenticated Arbitrary Order Cancellation in all versions up to, and including, 1.3.1. This is due to a lack of authentication and authorization checks in the 'handle_checkout_redirecturl_response' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to cancel arbitrary WooCommerce orders by sending a crafted request with a valid order ID.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
Wizit Gateway for WooCommerce versions through 1.3.1 allow an unauthenticated internet user who knows a valid order ID to cancel that order. The issue can disrupt sales and create customer-service or fulfillment problems, but the supplied sources do not indicate data theft or complete site compromise.
Executive priority
Treat as a prompt operational fix for stores using the affected plugin. Although rated medium, successful abuse could cancel revenue-generating orders without authentication. Prioritize public, high-volume stores and investigate unexplained cancellations; emergency incident status is not supported without local evidence of abuse.
Technical view
The plugin's handle_checkout_redirecturl_response function lacks authentication and authorization checks, classified as CWE-862. A crafted network request containing a valid WooCommerce order ID can alter order state without credentials or user interaction. CVSS 3.1 rates it 5.3, with low integrity impact and no stated confidentiality or availability impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is likely where Wizit Gateway for WooCommerce version 1.3.1 or earlier is installed and its affected checkout response handler is internet-accessible. Successful abuse also requires a valid order ID. The supplied evidence does not establish how readily attackers can obtain those IDs.
Exploitation context
The weakness is remotely reachable, low complexity, requires no privileges, and needs no victim interaction. However, the source bundle marks it absent from KEV and provides no evidence of active exploitation. Its demonstrated consequence is arbitrary order cancellation, not code execution or information disclosure.
Researcher notes
The affected function and missing access checks are specifically identified, and the WordPress Trac references include historical source and a changeset. The supplied bundle does not explicitly name the first corrected version or describe the changeset, so remediation should be verified against vendor guidance. Do not infer active exploitation from remote reachability alone.
Mitigation direction
Inventory WordPress sites for Wizit Gateway for WooCommerce version 1.3.1 or earlier.
Check vendor and WordPress plugin guidance for a release confirmed to address CVE-2025-14843.
Update to the confirmed corrected release after testing checkout and payment workflows.
If no corrected release is available, disable the plugin or restrict the affected integration until guidance is available.
Review cancelled orders and reconcile them against legitimate customer or payment events.
Validation and detection
Confirm the installed plugin version on every WooCommerce site.
Verify the deployed version is outside the stated affected range and vendor-confirmed as corrected.
Review application and web logs for unauthenticated requests reaching the checkout response handler.
Identify unexpected order cancellations, especially those lacking matching customer, administrator, or payment-provider activity.
Test legitimate checkout redirects after remediation without attempting unauthorized cancellation.

Missing Authorization
Missing Authorization represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
