dbcve checks

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

  1. Verify Eupago Gateway For WooCommerce is installed
    Log in to WordPress admin panel and navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins. Look for 'Eupago Gateway For WooCommerce' in the list of active plugins.

  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In the WordPress admin Plugins page, click on the plugin name to view details, or check the plugin header in /wp-content/plugins/eupago-gateway-for-woocommerce/ folder for the version number.
    Affected if The version is 4.7.1 or lower (any version up to and including 4.7.1)
  3. Identify exposed administrative endpoints
    Review the plugin files for any AJAX handlers, REST API routes, or admin pages that handle sensitive operations. Check for functions that process payments, refunds, or configuration changes without verifying user capabilities.
    Affected if The plugin exposes administrative functionality that can be accessed without proper capability checks
  4. Test for unauthorized access to restricted functions
    Attempt to access plugin functions using a low-privilege user account (e.g., subscriber or customer role) to see if sensitive operations can be triggered without admin-level permissions.
    Affected if Non-administrator users can access functionality intended only for administrators
