Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Missing Authorization vulnerability in Passionate Brains Advanced WC Analytics advance-wc-analytics allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Advanced WC Analytics: from n/a through <= 3.19.0.

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

This is a missing authorization vulnerability in the Advanced WC Analytics WordPress plugin. The plugin fails to properly enforce access control checks, allowing authenticated users to access functionality beyond their intended security level. An attacker with basic user access could potentially exploit incorrectly configured access control to view or manipulate analytics data they should not have access to.

MitigationUpdate to version 3.19.1 or later which includes proper authorization checks. If no update is available, audit the plugin code for functions lacking current_user_can() capability checks and add appropriate authorization validation, or restrict plugin access via server-level authentication requirements.

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. Confirm plugin is installed and active
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'Advanced WC Analytics' or 'Advanced Woo Analytics'. Check if it is activated.
    Affected if The plugin is installed and activated on the WordPress site.
  2. Identify installed plugin version
    In Plugins list, click the plugin name to view details, or check the plugin main file header in wp-content/plugins/advanced-wc-analytics/ for the 'Version' comment. Compare the version number to 3.19.1.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 3.19.1.
  3. Check plugin file for missing capability checks
    Examine the main plugin PHP file (usually advanced-wc-analytics.php or similar) and look for AJAX action handlers (add_action calls with wp_ajax_) and direct access functions. Search for whether current_user_can() or capability checks appear before sensitive operations.
    Affected if AJAX handlers or analytics data functions lack current_user_can() or similar authorization checks.
  4. Review user role access to analytics features
    Create or use a test account with Subscriber or Shop Subscriber role. Attempt to access the WooCommerce Analytics menu or any custom analytics endpoints the plugin adds. Log what data is visible or accessible.
    Affected if Low-privileged users (Subscriber, Shop Subscriber) can view or export analytics data they should not access.
  5. Inspect network requests for unauthorized data access
    Using browser developer tools, monitor network traffic while logged in as a basic user. Look for requests to admin-ajax.php or custom plugin endpoints that return analytics data. Check the response for sensitive order, customer, or revenue information.
    Affected if Basic authenticated users can trigger requests that return analytics data without proper authorization.

If the plugin is installed with a version below 3.19.1 AND basic user roles can access analytics data or trigger plugin functions without proper capability verification, the environment is affected by this CVE.
