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 WPWeb Elite WooCommerce PDF Vouchers plugin allows attackers to access functionality not properly constrained by Access Control Lists (ACLs). With a CVSS of 9.8 (Critical), this likely enables unauthenticated or low-privilege users to execute privileged actions within the voucher management system, potentially exposing sensitive PDF voucher generation and redemption functionality.

MitigationImplement proper capability checks and authorization validation on all sensitive functions in the plugin, particularly admin-side and voucher processing endpoints. Update to the patched version (4.9.5 or later) when available, and audit user role permissions in WooCommerce.

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 directory
    Check your WordPress wp-content/plugins directory for a folder named 'woocommerce-pdf-vouchers' or similar variant containing 'wpweb' and 'voucher' in the name
    Affected if The plugin folder exists on the server
  2. Identify the installed plugin version
    Open the main plugin PHP file (usually named plugin-name.php) and locate the 'Version' header in the plugin comment block, or check the version in the WordPress admin Plugins page
    Affected if The version number found is less than 4.9.5 (e.g., 4.9.4, 4.9.3, 4.0, etc.)
  3. Verify WooCommerce is active
    Check that WooCommerce plugin is installed and active in the WordPress admin, as this PDF Vouchers plugin is a WooCommerce extension
    Affected if WooCommerce is active and the vulnerable plugin version is below 4.9.5
  4. Confirm the plugin handles sensitive voucher operations
    Review the plugin functionality to confirm it handles PDF voucher generation, redemption codes, or gift voucher management for WooCommerce orders
    Affected if The plugin manages PDF vouchers or gift codes and the installed version is below 4.9.5

You are affected if the WPWeb Elite WooCommerce PDF Vouchers plugin is installed with any version prior to 4.9.5, as the missing authorization vulnerability allows unauthorized access to privileged voucher management functions.
