Description
Summary
The checkout component improperly filters URL-writable properties, allowing authenticated users to inject arbitrary key-value pairs into server provisioning parameters. Because bundled server extensions prioritize these user-supplied properties over administrator-defined configurations, a regular user can override hosting plans and resource limits at checkout without special privileges.
Technical Details
The Checkout Livewire component (app/Livewire/Products/Checkout.php) exposes the $checkoutConfig property to URL query parameters via the #[Url] attribute (aliased as config).
When processing this input:
- Validation rules are dynamically generated only for keys explicitly defined by an extension's
getCheckoutConfig()method. Any undefined keys injected into the query parameter bypass validation entirely. - The cart component (
app/Livewire/Cart.php) stores all keys fromcheckout_configdirectly into the database without sanitation:
foreach ($item->checkout_config as $key => $value) {
$service->properties()->updateOrCreate(['key' => $key], ['value' => $value]);
}
- During server provisioning, app/Helpers/ExtensionHelper.php retrieves these stored properties and passes them to the extension's createServer() method.
Because of how individual server extensions handle these properties, user-injected data overrides intended administrator settings.
Impact
This is a business logic flaw that allows remote, authenticated users to manipulate server provisioning parameters.
Depending on the active extension, this leads to unauthorized overrides of core resource limits (such as CPU, RAM, storage, or package tiers). No administrative privileges are required to exploit this vulnerability.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for paymenter/paymenter, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update paymenter/paymenter to 1.5.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-47198 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
