Summary
The Sadad QA Payment WordPress plugin through 1.28 does not correctly verify the authenticity of incoming payment notifications (CWE-345). The verification is keyed on a merchant secret that is empty by default, while the rest of the signed data is attacker-controlled. An unauthenticated remote attacker can forge a valid payment confirmation and mark orders as paid without payment. A public exploit is linked in the references.
