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

A missing authorization vulnerability in the Extra Product Options Builder for WooCommerce plugin (additional-product-fields-for-woocommerce) allows authenticated users to access functionality beyond their intended privilege level due to incorrectly configured access control security levels. Attackers can exploit this to perform actions that should be restricted to higher-privilege users.

MitigationUpdate to the latest version of the plugin once available, or implement server-side access control restrictions at the web application firewall level to validate user permissions before allowing access to sensitive plugin endpoints.

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. Locate the plugin installation directory
    Check your WordPress wp-content/plugins/ directory for a folder named 'additional-product-options-for-woocommerce', 'extra-product-options-for-woocommerce', or similar variations related to Extra Product Options functionality
    Affected if The plugin directory exists in the WordPress plugins folder
  2. Identify the exact plugin folder name
    List all directories in wp-content/plugins/ that contain 'product-option' or 'extra-product' in the name and note the folder name used on your installation
    Affected if A folder matching the Extra Product Options plugin is found with any naming variant
  3. Read the installed plugin version
    Open the main PHP file in the plugin directory (usually the primary PHP file with the same name as the folder) and locate the 'Version:' header in the plugin comment block at the top of the file
    Affected if You can read the Version number from the plugin header
  4. Compare version against fixed release
    Check the WordPress plugin repository or the vendor changelog for the plugin to find when the authorization fix was released; compare your installed version to that release
    Affected if Your installed version is older than the version that includes the authorization fix
  5. Verify user role configuration
    Review your WordPress user roles and capabilities to identify which user roles have access to the plugin admin functionality (typically under WooCommerce > Product Options or similar menu items)
    Affected if Lower-privileged user roles (like Subscriber, Customer, or Contributor) have access to plugin admin features that should be restricted to Administrators only

You are affected if the Extra Product Options Builder for WooCommerce plugin is installed with a version that predates the security fix and your site allows user roles below Administrator to access plugin admin functions.
