CVE-2026-1934: Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings Plugin <= 1.4.103 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Payment Bypass via 'stm_payment_status' Parameter
The Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Payment Bypass via insecure user meta update in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.103 This is due to the stmsaveuserextrafields() function updating sensitive user meta fields from POST data without verifying that the current user should have permission to modify those fields. The function hooks into the 'personaloptionsupdate' action and only checks currentusercan('edituser', $userid), which passes for any user editing their own profile. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to set their stmpaymentstatus to 'completed', bypassing the PayPal payment verification and gaining access to paid Dealer membership features without completing any transaction.
