CVE-2024-13774
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedThe Wishlist for WooCommerce: Multi Wishlists Per Customer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.7. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'save_to_multiple_wishlist' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update settings and inject malicious web scripts via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify Wishlist for WooCommerce plugin is installedNavigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins in WordPress admin and look for 'Wishlist for WooCommerce' by Wpfactory, or check the filesystem at wp-content/plugins/wishlist-for-woocommerce/ for the main plugin fileAffected if Plugin is not installed or not present in the expected location
-
Identify installed plugin versionIn WordPress admin, view the plugin details from the Plugins page to see the version number, or open the main plugin PHP file (e.g., wishlist-for-woocommerce.php) and locate the 'Version' header in the plugin comment blockAffected if Version is less than 3.1.8 (e.g., 3.1.7, 3.1.6, etc.)
-
Confirm vulnerable function existsAccess the plugin files via FTP or file manager, then open includes/class-wishlist-for-woocommerce.php or similar main class file and search for the function named 'save_to_multiple_wishlist'Affected if The function 'save_to_multiple_wishlist' exists in the plugin code
-
