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 vanquish WooCommerce Order Details woocommerce-order-details allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects WooCommerce Order Details: from n/a through <= 3.1.

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 vanquish WooCommerce Order Details plugin (woocommerce-order-details) allows unauthenticated or unauthorized attackers to bypass access control checks and view order details they should not have permission to access, due to incorrectly configured security levels.

MitigationImplement proper authorization checks at all access points for order data, verifying user permissions before returning any order information. The plugin version should be updated to the latest release if a patched version is available.

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 the WooCommerce Order Details plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'WooCommerce Order Details' by vanquish or check the file path wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-order-details/ for existence
    Affected if The plugin folder 'woocommerce-order-details' exists in the WordPress plugins directory
  2. Identify the installed plugin version
    Check the plugin header in wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-order-details/woocommerce-order-details.php for the 'Version' field, or view the plugin details in WordPress admin plugins list
    Affected if The version cannot be determined or is older than the latest patched release available from the vendor
  3. Verify WooCommerce is active
    Confirm WooCommerce is installed and active, as this plugin requires WooCommerce to function - check in Plugins > Installed Plugins for WooCommerce status
    Affected if WooCommerce is not active (the vulnerability only applies when WooCommerce and the plugin are both active)
  4. Inspect order detail access points for authorization checks
    Examine the plugin PHP files (particularly any files handling order-view or order-detail endpoints) for presence of current_user_can(), wp_verify_nonce(), or similar authorization validation before outputting order data
    Affected if The plugin code returns order information without verifying the current user owns or has permission to view the specific order ID being requested

The environment is affected if the WooCommerce Order Details plugin is installed and active, and the plugin code lacks proper authorization checks before exposing order data to users.

Mitigation

Implement proper authorization checks at all access points for order data, verifying user permissions before returning any order information. The plugin version should be updated to the latest release if a patched version is available.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Latest version of WooCommerce Order Details plugin (vendor should release a version newer than 3.1 with security fix)

  1. 1. Check the current version of the WooCommerce Order Details plugin (by vanquish) installed on your WordPress site.
  2. 2. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins in your WordPress admin dashboard.
  3. 3. Locate 'WooCommerce Order Details' (also may be listed as 'woocommerce-order-details') and note the current version.
  4. 4. Navigate to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin or directly download the latest version from the WordPress plugin repository.
  5. 5. Backup your WordPress database and files before performing the upgrade.
  6. 6. Deactivate the current version of the plugin.
  7. 7. Install and activate the latest available version of the WooCommerce Order Details plugin.
