Woocommerce · Woocommerce Paypal Checkout Payment Gateway · CVE-2019-7441
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
WooCommerce PayPal Checkout Payment Gateway plugin version 1.6.8
**Description**
The issue allows Parameter Tampering in an `amount` parameter, such as `amount 1`, in the `/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd= cart` endpoint. This can be exploited by purchasing an item for a lower price than intended. However, the plugin author notes that the amount is validated against the WooCommerce order total before completing the order. If the amounts do not match, the order will be left in an "On Hold" state.
**Recommendations**
For version 1.6.8, consider restricting the use of the `amount 1` parameter in the `/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd= cart` endpoint until a patch is available. Additionally, monitor orders for discrepancies between the intended and actual prices to minimize potential financial losses. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
