Missing Authorization vulnerability in g5theme Book Previewer for Woocommerce book-previewer-for-woocommerce allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Book Previewer for Woocommerce: from n/a through <= 1.0.6.
AnalysisAI
Book Previewer for WooCommerce plugin versions up to 1.0.6 fail to enforce authorization checks on sensitive functionality, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to access restricted content with low-complexity exploitation. The vulnerability stems from missing access control validation, enabling attackers to bypass intended security boundaries without user interaction. While CVSS rates this as moderate (5.3), EPSS exploitation probability remains minimal at 0.02% percentile, and no public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed.
Technical ContextAI
This is a broken access control vulnerability (CWE-862) in the Book Previewer for WooCommerce WordPress plugin, which integrates with WooCommerce to provide book preview functionality. The plugin fails to implement proper authorization checks on its exposed endpoints or functions, likely in the REST API or AJAX handlers that retrieve or display book preview content. The affected component relies on incorrectly configured access control security levels that do not validate user permissions or capabilities before serving restricted resources. WordPress plugins are vulnerable to this class of issue when they expose functionalities without checking the current user's role or capabilities, allowing both unauthenticated and unprivileged users to perform actions intended only for administrators or paying customers.
RemediationAI
Update Book Previewer for WooCommerce to a patched version beyond 1.0.6 immediately. WordPress plugin updates are available directly from the WordPress admin dashboard (Plugins > Installed Plugins > Book Previewer for WooCommerce > Update) or manually from the WordPress plugin repository at https://wordpress.org/plugins/book-previewer-for-woocommerce/. For detailed vulnerability information and patch confirmation, refer to the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/book-previewer-for-woocommerce/vulnerability/wordpress-book-previewer-for-woocommerce-plugin-1-0-6-broken-access-control-vulnerability. Until patching is completed, site administrators should verify that book preview access is restricted to authorized users at the WooCommerce product/customer level, though this may not fully compensate for plugin-level access control flaws.
