Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

The vulnerability is a missing authorization check in StackWC Order Listener for WooCommerce (woc-order-alert) versions up to 3.6.1. Because the plugin does not enforce proper access control, any authenticated or potentially unauthenticated user can invoke privileged plugin functionality that should be restricted. The weakness aligns with CWE‑862, representing an access control failure that can lead to unauthorized manipulation of order alerts or other sensitive operations.

Affected Systems

The affected product is the StackWC Order Listener for WooCommerce plugin, with all releases from the unknown initial version up through 3.6.1 susceptible to this flaw.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.4 indicates a critical impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low current exploitation probability, and the vulnerability is not yet listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is via the web interface, where an attacker can craft requests to unprotected plugin endpoints to gain unauthorized access or alter order alert behavior. No special conditions are required beyond the plugin’s presence and reachable endpoints.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Order Listener for WooCommerce plugin to the latest version that bundles the access‑control fix.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately feasible, restrict network access to the plugin’s endpoints using firewall or WAF rules to limit exposure to trusted traffic.
  • Monitor site logs for suspicious requests to plugin URLs and apply additional access restrictions or hardening measures as needed.
