Shopper: Missing per-action authorization on PaymentMethods, Currencies and Carriers admin tables

Description

Impact

The admin tables for PaymentMethods, Currencies and Carriers exposed inline toggles and per-record actions (enable, disable, edit, delete) that were rendered for any authenticated panel user without checking the corresponding per-action permission. A low-privilege user could:

  • Disable every payment method on the store, blocking checkout.
  • Disable or alter the default currency, changing displayed prices and the exchange rate basis.
  • Disable carriers, breaking shipping rate computation at checkout.

The impact is a full denial of checkout and pricing integrity loss, reachable by any authenticated user.

Patches

Fixed in v2.8.0. Each toggle and per-record action now requires its matching permission (edit_payment_methods, edit_currencies, edit_carriers).

Upgrade via:

composer require shopper/admin:^2.8

Workarounds

None. Upgrade to v2.8.0.

Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:L)
A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:N)
Doesn’t really leak secrets in a meaningful way.
Integrity (I:H)
They could widely tamper with or forge data—trust in the data is badly hurt.
Availability (A:N)
Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
