Description

The Motors – Car Dealership and Classified Listings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Payment Bypass via insecure user meta update in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.103 This is due to the stm_save_user_extra_fields() function updating sensitive user meta fields from POST data without verifying that the current user should have permission to modify those fields. The function hooks into the 'personal_options_update' action and only checks current_user_can('edit_user', $user_id), which passes for any user editing their own profile. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to set their stm_payment_status to 'completed', bypassing the PayPal payment verification and gaining access to paid Dealer membership features without completing any transaction.
