Published Aug 2, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed

Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

The Product Attachment for WooCommerce plugin before version 2.3.3 does not perform an authorization check when streaming media library files. This flaw allows any visitor, even those not logged in, to download any attachment by guessing or enumerating the numeric ID of the file. The result is a direct breach of confidentiality, as private or unlinked uploads can be retrieved without permission.

Affected Systems

Any WordPress installation that uses the Plugin \"Product Attachment for WooCommerce\" with a version older than 2.3.3 is vulnerable. The vendor is not specified, so the risk applies broadly to all sites deploying this plugin without the fixed release.

Risk and Exploitability

The EPSS score of <1% and the absence of a KEV listing suggest limited exploitation evidence, but the flaw still provides a trivial exploitation path. An attacker only needs to guess or iterate numeric identifiers for media files, and due to the lack of an authorization check, any file—private or unlinked—becomes downloadable. With a CVSS score of 7.5, the vulnerability is classified as High severity and could expose confidential attachments. The weakness corresponds to CWE‑862 (Inadequate Authorization), emphasizing that authorization checks are missing.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Product Attachment for WooCommerce to version 2.3.3 or later.
  • Verify plugin settings enforce authentication for attachment downloads, ensuring private uploads cannot be accessed by unauthenticated users.
  • Restrict direct access to the WordPress uploads directory by configuring server rules (e.g., .htaccess) to block unauthenticated access, thereby reducing risk if an older plugin version remains.
