What is CVE-2026-16947?
The Total Processing plugin for WooCommerce versions up to 7.3 has a significant security flaw that allows attackers to exploit improper path validation. This vulnerability enables unauthenticated users to craft malicious server-side requests, leading to the potential redirection of verification requests to unauthorized hosts. Consequently, this can expose sensitive payment-gateway credentials and enable attackers to forge success responses, falsely marking WooCommerce orders as paid. The implications are severe, making it essential for users to update and secure their installations promptly.
