Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Missing authorization vulnerability in the Prince Integrate Google Drive plugin (likely a WordPress plugin) allows attackers to bypass or exploit incorrectly configured access control security levels, potentially enabling unauthorized access to Google Drive functionality and data.

MitigationUpdate to the latest version of Prince Integrate Google Drive (beyond 1.3.8) which should contain proper authorization fixes, and review access control configurations to ensure proper permission enforcement.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate the plugin installation
    Check your WordPress installation's wp-content/plugins/ directory for a folder named 'prince-integrate-google-drive' or 'prince-integrate-gd'. Alternatively, log into the WordPress admin dashboard and navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins to search for 'Prince Integrate Google Drive'.
    Affected if The plugin folder or listing is found in your WordPress installation.
  2. Identify the installed version
    In the WordPress admin dashboard, find the plugin in the Installed Plugins list and locate the version number displayed below the plugin name. If accessing the filesystem directly, open the main plugin PHP file (usually prince-integrate-google-drive.php) and look for the version declaration in the plugin header comments.
    Affected if The version number displayed is lower than 1.3.8.
  3. Verify the plugin is active
    In WordPress admin dashboard, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and check if Prince Integrate Google Drive shows as 'Active' under the plugin status column.
    Affected if The plugin is currently activated.
  4. Inspect user role permissions
    Navigate to WordPress Users > Roles and Capabilities (or use a role editor plugin) to review what capabilities are assigned to each user role, particularly looking for any custom roles or modified capabilities related to Google Drive integration that were not intentionally configured.
    Affected if Unexpected roles or capabilities exist that grant Google Drive access to users who should not have it.
  5. Review Google Drive API access logs
    If the plugin is configured with Google Drive API credentials, access the Google Cloud Console at console.cloud.google.com, navigate to APIs & Services > Dashboard, and review the usage logs and access logs for the Google Drive API to identify any unauthorized or unexpected API calls.
    Affected if API calls originate from unexpected IP addresses, at unusual times, or by users without proper authorization.

Your environment is affected if the Prince Integrate Google Drive plugin is installed, active, and running on a version lower than 1.3.8, or if unauthorized users have gained access to Google Drive functionality through misconfigured permissions.
