An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-81740 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Paytm Payment Gateway. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-81740/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-81740/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-81740","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-81740/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-81740","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2xw5-r48v-m7fg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can manipulate order statuses in the Paytm Payment Gateway plugin if the secret key is not configured, allowing them to mark unpaid orders as paid.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"The Paytm Payment Gateway WordPress plugin before 2.8.9 does not verify that payment callbacks genuinely originate from the payment provider when its secret key has not been configured, which is its state immediately after activation, allowing unauthenticated attackers to change the status of arbitrary orders, including marking unpaid orders as paid and reducing stock.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Paytm Payment Gateway \u003c 2.8.9 - Unauthenticated Order Status Manipulation via Payment Callback","id":"CVE-2026-81740","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Groundhogg \u003c 4.7.2 - Open Redirect via 'redirect_to' Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-81741"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Paytm Payment Gateway \u003c 2.8.9 - Unauthenticated Stored XSS via Payment Callback","id":"CVE-2026-81739"},"products":["Paytm Payment Gateway"],"published":"2026-10-02","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-02","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can manipulate order statuses in the Paytm Payment Gateway plugin if the secret key is not configured, allowing them to mark unpaid orders as paid.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-81740/"}
