Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in wpweb WooCommerce Social Login woo-social-login allows Cross Site Request Forgery.This issue affects WooCommerce Social Login: from n/a through < 2.8.3.

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 · high confidence

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability exists in the wpweb WooCommerce Social Login plugin (versions prior to 2.8.3). The plugin fails to properly validate anti-CSRF tokens (nonces) on state-changing operations, allowing attackers to trick authenticated users into performing unintended actions such as modifying social login settings or associating their accounts with attacker-controlled social profiles.

MitigationUpgrade to WooCommerce Social Login version 2.8.3 or later which includes proper CSRF token validation. Alternatively, if immediate upgrade is not possible, implement WordPress nonce verification on all form submissions and AJAX actions within the plugin.

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 the plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'WooCommerce Social Login' by Wpwebelite, or check the /wp-content/plugins/ directory for the woocommerce-social-login folder
    Affected if The plugin is installed and active
  2. Check the installed version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins, find WooCommerce Social Login, and note the version number displayed below the plugin name
    Affected if Version is less than 2.8.3 (for example 2.8.2, 2.8.1, 2.7.0, etc.)
  3. Confirm the plugin is in use
    Navigate to WooCommerce > Settings > Social Login in the admin panel and check if any social login providers (Facebook, Google, etc.) are configured or enabled
    Affected if The plugin has active social login configurations and is processing user authentications
  4. Verify nonce validation is absent
    Examine the plugin's PHP files (particularly in includes/class-*.php or templates/) for form submissions and AJAX actions; look for missing wp_verify_nonce, check_admin_referer, or nonce_field calls on state-changing functions
    Affected if State-changing operations lack nonce verification code

You are affected if WooCommerce Social Login version 2.8.3 or higher is not installed and the plugin is actively handling social login operations on your site.
