Summary
The SUMIT Payment Gateway for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 4.0.0 does not bind the payment it confirms with the provider to the order being completed. It also does not check the payment amount against the order total. An unauthenticated attacker can mark a pending order as paid by replaying a payment identifier from any single genuine payment. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 5.3 (medium), and a public exploit is linked in the references.
