CVE-2024-12264

Estado: AplazadaCrítica (9.8)—

The PayU CommercePro Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 3.8.3. This is due to /wp-json/payu/v1/generate-user-token and /wp-json/payu/v1/get-shipping-cost REST API endpoints not properly verifying a user's identity prior to setting the users ID and auth cookies. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to create new administrative user accounts.

CVSS

Versión: 3.1
Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Puntuación base: 9.8

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.73%
Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 53
Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

ExplotaciónT1190 Exploit Public-Facing Applicationinitial access95 %
Impacto principalT1078 Valid Accountsstealth · persistence · privilege escalation · initial access90 %
Impacto secundarioT1136 Create Accountpersistence85 %

Vector CVSS con AV:N/PR:N/UI:N indica explotación remota sin autenticación (T1190). Los endpoints REST no verifican identidad, permitiendo crear cuentas administrativas (T1078 y T1136).

Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
