The Coinbase Commerce Payment Gateway for WooCommerce WordPress plugin through 1.4.1 does not verify the authenticity of incoming payment webhook notifications, because the shared secret used to validate the request signature is empty by default and nothing rejects an unconfigured secret, allowing unauthenticated attackers to forge notifications that mark arbitrary orders as paid or cancel already-paid orders.
Weakness
The product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data.
