Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress session with at minimum the shop manager role on a site running Order Delivery Date for WooCommerce version 4.6.0 or earlier. The CVSS PR:H metric confirms that unauthenticated access is not sufficient - a valid shop manager account must exist and be accessible to the attacker. There is no requirement for special server-side configurations beyond the vulnerable plugin being active. What limits exploitation is the prerequisite of possessing or compromising a shop manager credential; sites that grant this role only to a small number of highly trusted users face substantially lower realistic risk. No specific WooCommerce feature toggle or non-default configuration is cited as an enabling condition - the flaw is present in the plugin's default installed state.

Impact

The CVSS score of 7.2 with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H reflects a network-exploitable, low-complexity flaw requiring high privileges - specifically, a valid shop manager account. The High Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability impact scores indicate that successful exploitation grants near-total control over the WordPress site. Despite the high-impact triad, the PR:H constraint substantially narrows real-world risk: an attacker must first possess or compromise a shop manager credential, which is not a default or anonymous condition. EPSS data is not provided, and the vulnerability carries no CISA KEV listing and no known POC, further reducing the likelihood of opportunistic mass exploitation. The realistic threat actor is a malicious insider, a disgruntled employee with shop manager access, or an attacker who has already compromised that specific account tier. For organizations that grant shop manager roles to multiple or external users (e.g., dropshipping partners, contractors), the risk is materially higher.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who holds or has stolen a shop manager account - perhaps a former employee or a contractor whose credentials were not revoked - authenticates to the WordPress admin panel and submits a crafted request to a plugin endpoint that performs insufficient capability verification. The incorrect privilege assignment flaw elevates the session to administrator level, enabling the attacker to install malicious plugins, create new administrator accounts, exfiltrate customer order data, or fully deface the storefront.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 06, 2026

Privilege escalation in Order Delivery Date for WooCommerce (versions ≤ 4.6.0) allows authenticated shop managers to exceed their intended role boundaries and gain elevated administrative access to the WordPress installation. Exploitation requires an existing shop manager account, confirmed by the CVSS:3.1 PR:H metric, limiting the attack surface to environments where untrusted or compromised accounts hold that role. No public exploit code has been identified and this vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

The primary remediation is to update the Order Delivery Date for WooCommerce plugin beyond version 4.6.0 as soon as a patched release is published by Tyche Softwares; no specific fixed version is confirmed in the available data, so administrators should monitor the plugin's WordPress.org repository page and the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/order-delivery-date-for-woocommerce/vulnerability/wordpress-order-delivery-date-for-woocommerce-plugin-4-6-0-privilege-escalation-vulnerability for patch availability. As an immediate compensating control, audit and minimize the number of users assigned the shop manager role, restricting it only to fully trusted personnel, since the vulnerability requires an active shop manager account to exploit. If the plugin is not operationally essential, temporary deactivation eliminates the attack surface entirely with no trade-off beyond loss of delivery scheduling functionality. Organizations using a Web Application Firewall with WordPress rulesets (e.g., Wordfence, Patchstack's virtual patching) may receive a virtual patch that blocks the specific request pattern until an official fix is released.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability resides in the Order Delivery Date for WooCommerce plugin developed by Tyche Softwares (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:tychesoftwares:order_delivery_date_for_woocommerce:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), a WordPress plugin that extends WooCommerce with delivery scheduling capabilities. The root cause is classified as CWE-266 (Incorrect Privilege Assignment), meaning the plugin fails to enforce proper WordPress capability checks when processing requests from shop manager-role users. In WordPress's role hierarchy, shop managers have broad access to orders, products, and store settings - but should be explicitly barred from administrative operations such as user management, plugin configuration, or site settings. The flaw likely involves a missing or incorrect capability check (e.g., using 'manage_woocommerce' instead of 'manage_options') in one or more AJAX handlers or admin endpoints exposed by the plugin, allowing role boundary crossing within the same WordPress application scope.

DescriptionCVE.org

Shop manager Privilege Escalation in Order Delivery Date for WooCommerce <= 4.6.0 versions.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Order Delivery Date for WooCommerce (versions through 4.6.0) allows authorized shop managers to escalate their access privileges to full site administrator level. This creates a significant insider threat risk where compromised or malicious personnel with shop manager roles could gain unauthorized control over e-commerce operations, customer data, and payment systems.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Until a patched version is available: restrict shop manager role assignment to trusted personnel only; enforce multi-factor authentication for all administrative accounts; enable comprehensive WordPress access logging and conduct weekly account reviews; disable shop manager accounts immediately upon employee termination; consider disabling the Order Delivery Date plugin temporarily on non-critical systems if operations permit; establish an expedited vendor patch tracking process.

Attack Technique

Privilege escalation occurs when an attacker leverages flaws in access control mechanisms to gain permissions beyond what they were originally granted.
