AnalysisAI
Insecure direct object reference in Barn2 Document Library Lite plugin for WordPress allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary documents by manipulating a user-controlled key parameter. Affected versions include all releases up to and including 1.1.7, with low confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability loss.
Technical ContextAI
Document Library Lite is a WordPress plugin that manages document libraries. The root cause is CWE-639 (Insecure Direct Object Reference), where the application uses a user-supplied key (likely a document ID) to retrieve files without verifying the requesting user’s permissions. The CVSS vector shows network attack vector, low complexity, and no privileges or user interaction, making exploitation trivial once the vulnerable endpoint is identified.
Affected ProductsAI
Barn2 Plugins Document Library Lite for WordPress, versions n/a through <= 1.1.7. The plugin is distributed via WordPress.org. No CPE is provided in NVD, but the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/document-library-lite/vulnerability/wordpress-document-library-lite-plugin-1-1-7-insecure-direct-object-references-idor-vulnerability?_s_id=cve) confirms the affected range.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Until an updated version is available, apply compensating controls such as restricting direct access to document retrieval endpoints via web application firewall rules that inspect and reject unauthorized ID parameter values. Temporarily disabling the plugin can eliminate the risk but removes document library functionality. Monitor the Patchstack advisory for a fix release.
