Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who can exploit this issue?

An attacker needs an authenticated WordPress account with subscriber-level access or higher. The vulnerable AJAX action is reachable over the network and does not require user interaction.

2

What access or data does an attacker need to target another user's order?

The attacker must be able to submit a crafted request to the marketking_send_refund AJAX action and supply an order ID. The flaw allows arbitrary order IDs to be used for refund requests, including orders the attacker did not place.

3

Which versions should be remediated?

MarketKing versions before 2.1.72 are affected. Update to version 2.1.72 or later.

4

How can an administrator look for attempted exploitation?

Review refund-request activity for requests associated with accounts that did not place the targeted orders. Also investigate AJAX requests invoking marketking_send_refund where the requesting user and supplied order ID do not correspond.
