MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | The affected plugin (Flexible Quantity - Measurement Price Calculator for WooCommerce, versions up to and including 2.3.23) must be installed and active on a WordPress/WooCommerce site reachable over the network. Per AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, no authentication, privileges, or user interaction are required, so default installations are reachable by unauthenticated remote actors. The practical limiting factor is impact scope, not access: the flaw yields only a LOW integrity effect (C:N/I:L/A:N), meaning an attacker can modify a constrained set of data rather than read sensitive data or disrupt the store. The exact feature/endpoint lacking the authorization check is not specified in the available data. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity (CVSS 5.3) Missing Authorization flaw (CWE-862) in the WP Desk Flexible Quantity plugin, reported by Patchstack. The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack requiring no privileges and no user interaction, but the impact is deliberately narrow: only a LOW integrity impact (I:L), with no confidentiality (C:N) and no availability (A:N) effect. This is the classic profile of a broken-access-control issue where an unauthenticated actor can reach an action that should be protected, but the action can only modify a limited subset of data rather than achieve full compromise. There is no EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public proof-of-concept provided in the input, so there is no evidence of active or imminent widespread exploitation. The signals are internally consistent - an easily reachable but low-impact bug - so this should be treated as a patch-in-normal-cycle item rather than an emergency. Note one metadata conflict: the 'Authentication Bypass' tag overstates the issue; CWE-862 and the referenced Patchstack advisory describe broken access control / missing authorization, not an authentication bypass. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated remote attacker sends a crafted HTTP request to a plugin endpoint (e.g. an AJAX or REST action) that lacks a proper capability or authorization check, allowing them to perform an action or alter plugin/order-related data they should not be able to touch. Because the CVSS vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, no login, no user interaction, and no special tooling is required. No public exploit code was identified in the provided data, so exploitation would currently require an attacker to independently identify the unprotected endpoint. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 15, 2026
Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit missing authorization in the WP Desk Flexible Quantity (Measurement Price Calculator for WooCommerce) plugin, versions up to and including 2.3.23, to modify a constrained set of data with low integrity impact. The flaw, tracked as CWE-862 and rated CVSS 5.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N), requires no authentication or user interaction, but the exact affected feature is unspecified. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Vendor patch availability is not explicitly stated in the provided data; consult the Patchstack advisory for the exact fixed version. If an update is available, upgrade the plugin beyond version 2.3.23 as recommended by the vendor. If no patch is yet available, deactivate and remove the plugin until a fix is released, as this eliminates the attack surface entirely. As a compensating control when the plugin is essential, deploy a web application firewall (WAF) rule to block unauthenticated requests to the plugin's specific AJAX or REST endpoints, but this requires knowing the exact action parameter (not provided) and may break legitimate storefront measurement/quantity features. Additionally, ensure WordPress and WooCommerce are up to date and restrict administrative access to trusted users.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is a Missing Authorization (CWE-862) issue in a WordPress plugin that extends WooCommerce with measurement-based pricing and flexible quantity functionality. The plugin is identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:wp_desk:flexible_quantity_-_measurement_price_calculator_for_woocommerce:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and is reachable over the network (AV:N) without authentication (PR:N) or user interaction (UI:N). The missing access control check likely allows an unauthenticated user to invoke a function that should be restricted to shop managers or administrators, but the specific AJAX/REST endpoint is not detailed in the available data. The impact is limited to integrity (I:L) with no confidentiality or availability impact.
