What is CVE-2026-27406?

CVE-2026-27406 is a vulnerability in the My Tickets – Accessible Event Ticketing plugin for WordPress, which allows unauthenticated users to access sensitive purchase data by manipulating the receipt_id parameter. This information exposure can lead to unauthorized access to user and configuration data.

How does the vulnerability work?

The vulnerability exists in the mt_receipt() function, where the plugin processes receipt requests without proper authorization checks. Attackers can exploit this by sending HTTP GET requests with a manipulated receipt_id, allowing them to access sensitive information such as customer emails and payment details.

Who is affected by this vulnerability?

All users of the My Tickets plugin version 2.1.0 and earlier are affected by this vulnerability. Administrators can check their plugin version in the WordPress dashboard under the Plugins section.

How can I check if my site is vulnerable?

To determine if your site is vulnerable, check the version of the My Tickets plugin installed on your WordPress site. If it is version 2.1.0 or earlier, your site is susceptible to this vulnerability.

How can I fix this vulnerability?

To mitigate this vulnerability, update the My Tickets plugin to version 2.1.1 or later, where the issue has been patched. Regularly updating all plugins is a best practice for WordPress security.

What does the CVSS score of 5.3 mean?

The CVSS score of 5.3 indicates a medium severity level for this vulnerability. This means that while it does not allow for direct privilege escalation or remote code execution, it poses a significant risk due to the potential exposure of sensitive information.

What are the practical implications of this vulnerability?

The practical implications include potential violations of user privacy and data protection regulations. Exposed information could be used for malicious purposes, making it critical for administrators to address this vulnerability promptly.

How does the proof of concept demonstrate the issue?

The proof of concept provided illustrates how an attacker can extract sensitive receipt data by constructing a URL with a valid receipt_id. It demonstrates the ease of exploitation without requiring authentication, highlighting the severity of the vulnerability.

What steps should I take after updating the plugin?

After updating the plugin, monitor your site for any unusual activity and consider conducting a security audit. Additionally, review user access controls and ensure that sensitive data is adequately protected.

Are there any other security measures I should implement?

In addition to updating the plugin, consider implementing security plugins, regular backups, and strong access controls. Educating users about phishing and social engineering can also help mitigate risks associated with information exposure.

Where can I find more information about this vulnerability?

More information about CVE-2026-27406 can be found on the National Vulnerability Database and through the official WordPress security advisories. Keeping abreast of security updates and best practices is essential for maintaining a secure WordPress environment.

Analysis Overview

Atomic Edge analysis of CVE-2026-27406:
The My Tickets WordPress plugin prior to version 2.1.1 contains an unauthenticated information exposure vulnerability in its receipt viewing functionality. This vulnerability allows any unauthenticated user to access sensitive purchase data, including user information and payment details, by manipulating the receipt_id parameter. The CVSS score of 5.3 reflects moderate severity due to the confidentiality impact without requiring authentication.

Atomic Edge research identified the root cause in the mt_receipt() function within /my-tickets/mt-receipt.php. The function processes receipt requests through the receipt_id GET parameter without proper authorization checks. Prior to patching, the function only verified the receipt_id parameter existed (line 19) before loading the receipt template (lines 20-26). The vulnerable code path allowed direct access to receipt data through the /?receipt_id={hash} endpoint on the configured receipt page.

The exploitation method involves an attacker accessing the plugin’s receipt page with a manipulated receipt_id parameter. The attacker can brute-force or guess valid receipt hashes to extract purchase information. The attack vector uses HTTP GET requests to the WordPress site’s receipt page (typically a page with the [mt_receipt] shortcode) with the receipt_id parameter containing a valid MD5 hash of a purchase receipt. No authentication or session tokens are required for successful exploitation.

Atomic Edge analysis confirms the patch implements multiple authorization layers. The fix adds three verification methods in mt-receipt.php lines 20-34: cookie validation using mt_set_receipt_cookie() and mt_get_payment_log_id(), time-based validation (10-minute window), and email verification through a new mt-verify.php template. The patch introduces the mt_get_payment_log_id() function in mt-cpt.php lines 45-56 to generate a unique receipt identifier combining the receipt hash and payment log data. The receipt template now only loads after passing one of three checks: valid cookie within 10 minutes, administrative privileges (mt-view-reports capability), or successful email verification via the new verification form.

Successful exploitation exposes sensitive purchase data including customer email addresses, payment amounts, ticket quantities, event details, and potentially custom form data submitted during checkout. While the vulnerability does not enable direct privilege escalation or remote code execution, the exposed information could facilitate social engineering attacks, payment fraud, or be combined with other vulnerabilities for more severe attacks. The data exposure violates user privacy expectations and may conflict with data protection regulations.
