See how simpler checkout compares to other vendors in security performance
The Simpler Checkout WordPress plugin before 1.5.4 does not properly restrict who can create orders and checks its automatic login link with a key that stays empty until the store owner configures the Simpler Checkout WordPress plugin before 1.5.4, allowing subscribers on stores that have not completed setup to log in as an administrator.
The Simpler Checkout plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in versions 0.7.0 to 1.1.9. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying a user's identity prior to logging them in as an admin through the simplerwcwoocommerceordercreated() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as other users based on their order ID, which can be an administrator if a site admin has placed a test order.
