The PAYCOMET for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 5.46 does not verify the cryptographic signature on its payment notification endpoint when the request references a tokenisation operation, allowing unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the stored payment token associated with existing orders and delete saved card records.
