The vulnerability exposes confidential commercial information and helps an attacker obtain downloadable assets or sensitive product attributes, resulting in information disclosure.
Affected Systems
The vulnerability affects installations of the BEAR plugin for WooCommerce running versions earlier than 1.2.2. No versions the fix. All WooCommerce sites that use the plugin before the specified release are susceptible.
Risk and Exploitability
a very low probability of exploitation. The flaw is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, suggesting limited current abuse, but the only prerequisite—a logged-in user with limited product view rights—opens the attack surface to many merchants. Attackers could harvest protected download links or leak proprietary product data, potentially impacting confidentiality2.2, indicating a low severity impact.
