GHSA-H698-R4HM-W94P

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2020-08-31 22:54 – Updated: 2021-09-23 20:58

Summary

Validation Bypass in paypal-ipn

Details

Versions 2.x.x and earlier of paypal-ipn are affected by a validation bypass vulnerability.

paypal-ipn uses the test_ipn parameter (which is set by the PayPal IPN simulator) to determine if it should use the production PayPal site or the sandbox.

A motivated attacker could craft a request string using the simulator to fool the application into entering the sandbox mode, potentially allowing purchases without valid payment.

Recommendation

Upgrade to version 3.0.0 or later.

Severity ?

5.9 (Medium)

CVE-2014-10067 (GCVE-0-2014-10067)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2018-05-29 20:00 – Updated: 2024-09-17 00:11

Summary

paypal-ipn before 3.0.0 uses the `test_ipn` parameter (which is set by the PayPal IPN simulator) to determine if it should use the production PayPal site or the sandbox. With a bit of time, an attacker could craft a request using the simulator that would fool any application which does not explicitly check for test_ipn in production.

Severity ?
