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 ashamil OPSI Israel Domestic Shipments woo-ups-pickup WordPress plugin allows authenticated users to access functionality beyond their intended privilege level due to incorrectly configured access control security levels. The vulnerability exists in versions up to and including 2.8.2, enabling attackers to exploit improperly enforced authorization checks.

MitigationUpdate to the latest version of the woo-ups-pickup plugin if a patched release is available. Otherwise, review the plugin code for authorization checks on sensitive functions and implement proper capability/role-based access controls.

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. Verify woo-ups-pickup plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Plugins and locate the woo-ups-pickup plugin (listed as ashamil OPSI Israel Domestic Shipments). Confirm whether it is installed and activated.
    Affected if The plugin is installed and active on the WordPress site
  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In the WordPress Plugins admin page, click on the plugin to view its details, or access the main plugin PHP file to read the version header. Compare the version number to 2.8.2.
    Affected if The installed version is 2.8.2 or earlier
  3. Inspect plugin authorization controls
    Access the plugin source files via FTP or file manager. Examine PHP functions that handle sensitive operations (shipment processing, order updates, configuration changes) for capability checks such as current_user_can() or role-based validation. Identify if these checks are missing or incorrectly applied.
    Affected if Sensitive plugin functions lack proper authorization checks or use overly permissive role definitions
  4. Test low-privilege user access
    Create or use a test account with a low-privilege role (Subscriber, Customer). Attempt to access plugin functions directly via URL or API calls that should normally require Administrator or Shop Manager privileges.
    Affected if Low-privilege users can successfully execute functions that should be restricted to higher roles

A site is affected if the woo-ups-pickup plugin is active at version 2.8.2 or lower and sensitive functions lack proper capability or role-based access controls, allowing authenticated users to exceed their privileges.
