    There is an issue where it should check if there the cron job hasn’t run, WordPress is a bit silly and seems to never register the return value of cron hooks to say if they worked or not. As such you will just need to change the code so it displays a warning and stops the checkout when the Monero price is severely out of date.

    I have this issue because my server uses a complicated system involving many components to get prices and information without using Tor exits, with an SSH dynamic port forward. Sometimes it fails and outdated prices appear. Someone could manipulate this and game my customer I do the the site for.

    It is an usual problem but this should just take some work on the config page regarding a timeout setting for prices. This would also tell people in strange circumstances like myself where cron wasn’t working due to SELinux issues on Gentoo. Some people might also have an unrelible question, and even there is a security risk where communication is disrupted to manipulate prices with some kind of DOS.
