{"schema":"threatline.record/2","record":{"id":"CVE-2026-109236","aliases":[],"summary":"Customer Email Verification for WooCommerce <= 2.8.2 - Unauthenticated Authentication Bypass via Predictable Email-Verification Token to 'cusomer_email_verify' Parameter","details":"The Customer Email Verification for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass via a Predictable Email-Verification Token in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.2. This is due to the `authenticate_user_by_email_link()` function — hooked on the `wp` action and triggered by the `cusomer_email_verify` GET parameter — lacking any capability check or nonce verification, while the `secret_code` it validates is generated as `md5(email . time())` and the `verify_otp_nonce` required to trigger token issuance via the `wp_ajax_nopriv_resend_otp` handler is emitted to every front-end visitor through `wp_localize_script`. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as a newly created, verified WooCommerce customer bound to an arbitrary email address — or to flip an existing account's `customer_email_verified` meta to verified — fully bypassing the plugin's core email-verification control. Exploitation requires the `cev_user_log` table to contain a `password` column, which is absent from the fresh-install schema shipped in version 2.8.2 but is present on sites upgraded from an older version where that column was defined.","categories":["Unclassified"],"product":"Customer Email Verification for WooCommerce","vendor":"zorem","ecosystem":null,"affected_ranges":[{"source":"CVE List","source_url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-109236","source_modified_at":"2026-10-28T05:33:31.213Z","fetched_at":"2026-10-28T08:18:35.509402Z","product":"Customer Email Verification for WooCommerce","vendor":"zorem","versions":[{"version":"0","status":"affected","lessThanOrEqual":"2.8.2","versionType":"semver"}],"defaultStatus":"unaffected"}],"fixed_versions":[],"cvss":4.8,"severity":"Medium","kev":{"listed":false},"epss":{"probability":null,"percentile":null,"score_date":null},"published_at":"2026-10-28T05:33:31.213Z","modified_at":"2026-10-28T05:33:31.213Z","provenance":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-109236","fetched_at":"2026-10-28T08:18:35.509402Z","source_modified_at":"2026-10-28T05:33:31.213Z"}],"sources":["CVE List"],"references":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/a2e9fa74-5501-4429-a500-1d4199571a34?source=cve"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/customer-email-verification-for-woocommerce/tags/2.8.2/includes/class-wc-customer-email-verification-signup.php#L616"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/customer-email-verification-for-woocommerce/tags/2.8.2/includes/class-wc-customer-email-verification-signup.php#L580"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/customer-email-verification-for-woocommerce/tags/2.8.2/includes/class-wc-customer-email-verification-signup.php#L274"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/customer-email-verification-for-woocommerce/tags/2.8.2/includes/class-wc-customer-email-verification-signup.php#L151"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/customer-email-verification-for-woocommerce/tags/2.8.2/includes/class-wc-customer-email-verification-signup.php#L119"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://wordpress.org/plugins/customer-email-verification-for-woocommerce/#developers"},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/customer-email-verification-for-woocommerce/tags/2.8.3/includes/class-wc-customer-email-verification-signup.php"}],"locations":[],"motoko_assessment":{"status":"requires_architecture_review","automatic_remediation":false},"cve_state":"PUBLISHED","cvss_source":"CVE List","classification":{"method":"product-first software-layer rules","rules_version":"2.1","matched_on":null,"confidence":"unknown","reviewed":false},"change_timestamp":"2026-10-28T05:33:31.213Z","content_hash":"b8dfa1fa6712d8805003a0185638252e639055f43e319a94e2f4913e7da4ddf1"}}
