Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who can exploit this issue?

Any authenticated WordPress user with Contributor-level access or a higher role can view the plugin's stored payment gateway configuration. This includes access to PayPal and Stripe credentials, including secret keys.

2

Which deployments are affected?

Sites using Event Booking Manager for WooCommerce versions earlier than 5.6.0 are affected. The issue concerns stored payment gateway configuration, so exposure depends on whether PayPal or Stripe credentials are configured in the plugin.

3

What should be done if an affected site may have had Contributor access?

Update the plugin to version 5.6.0 or later. Because exposed data can include PayPal and Stripe secret keys, review who had Contributor-or-higher access and rotate any credentials that may have been accessible.
