Official description
Joomla Extension - joomshaper.com - Unauthenticated PII Exposure via IDOR in Guest Checkout in Easy Store extension 1.0.0-3.0.0 - The checkout.searchGuestUser endpoint allowed querying guest checkout records solely by supplying an email address. The server returned complete shipping details (full name, phone number, street address, city, postal code, and country) directly from the #__easystore_guests table with no authentication, session validation, or ownership checks. An unauthenticated attacker could iterate through email lists to enumerate guest customers and harvest sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (PII). Resolved by removing the unauthenticated server-side guest lookup endpoint entirely and migrating autofill functionality to client-side localStorage protected by explicit user consent.

The underlying weakness: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor
The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Compartmentalize the system to have safe areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area. Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
