CVE-2025-15671
The Welcart e-Commerce WordPress plugin before 2.12.1 does not regenerate the session identifier on authentication and sets the session identifier from a user-supplied request parameter, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to fixate a shop member's session and take over their customer account after the victim logs in through an attacker-crafted request.
What this means for your business
- An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, but only after tricking someone into an action such as opening a file or a link.
What to do
- 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
- 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
