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

The WR Price List Manager For WooCommerce plugin (versions up to 1.0.8) contains a missing authorization vulnerability that allows attackers to exploit incorrectly configured access control security levels. This broken access control likely affects AJAX endpoints, admin pages, or API functionality within the plugin that fail to properly verify user capabilities before granting access to sensitive price list management features.

MitigationUpdate to the latest version of WR Price List Manager For WooCommerce when available; otherwise implement custom capability checks on all plugin endpoints and restrict access to trusted user roles only.

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 WR Price List Manager plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Plugins > Installed Plugins and locate 'WR Price List Manager For WooCommerce' in the list
    Affected if The plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Identify the installed plugin version
    Click 'View details' on the WR Price List Manager plugin entry to display the version number, or check the plugin header in /wp-content/plugins/wr-price-list-manager/ directory
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0.8 or lower
  3. Confirm the plugin is active
    Check the status column in the Plugins list; the plugin must be active for the vulnerability to be exploitable
    Affected if The plugin status shows 'Active'
  4. Inspect plugin AJAX endpoints for access control
    Examine the plugin PHP files in /wp-content/plugins/wr-price-list-manager/ for wp_ajax_ and wp_ajax_nopriv_ action hooks; verify if capability checks (current_user_can, etc.) are present before sensitive operations
    Affected if AJAX handlers exist without current_user_can() or similar capability validation
  5. Review admin page access restrictions
    Check plugin PHP files for admin menu registration (add_menu_page, add_submenu_page) and whether capability parameters are set to restrict access to administrator or shop manager roles only
    Affected if Admin pages are registered without proper capability parameters or role-based restrictions
