CVE-2021-39342 describes a critical information disclosure vulnerability in the Credova_Financial WordPress plugin, affecting versions up to and including 1.4.8. This flaw exposes the site's Credova API account username and password in plaintext through an AJAX action during checkout, specifically when the Credova Financing option is enabled. With a CVSS score of 7.5 (HIGH), this vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to remotely access sensitive credentials with low attack complexity, leading to a high impact on confidentiality. While no active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion has been observed, the potential for unauthorized access to financial API credentials remains a serious concern.
