Exploitation Conditions

Per the CVSS vector (PR:N/UI:N/AV:N/AC:L), no authentication and no user interaction are required, and exploitation is feasible from any network location without special conditions. The limiting prerequisite is that the Event Tickets Manager for WooCommerce plugin by WP Swings must be installed, active, and running version 1.5.5 or earlier on a WordPress site also running WooCommerce. Impact is constrained to limited integrity and limited availability (I:L/A:L) - confidentiality is not impacted (C:N), ruling out direct data theft. The specific vulnerable plugin action or endpoint is not named in the available data, meaning an attacker would need to enumerate plugin-registered endpoints to identify the exact attack surface.

Impact

The CVSS 6.5 Medium score is supported by a network-accessible (AV:N), low-complexity (AC:L), unauthenticated (PR:N), no-interaction (UI:N) attack profile, with impact capped at limited integrity (I:L) and availability (I:L) - no confidentiality loss is indicated (C:N). This places it in a common category of WordPress plugin access-control flaws: broadly reachable but bounded in damage. No EPSS score was provided in the source data, so probabilistic exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified. The absence of a KEV listing and the lack of any identified POC suggests opportunistic mass exploitation has not yet materialized. Practically, the risk is meaningful for any site running this plugin in versions through 1.5.5, particularly if the plugin manages paid or access-controlled event ticketing, where unauthorized integrity modifications (e.g., ticket state changes, event data manipulation) could cause business disruption or fraud. The bounded impact (L/L, no confidentiality) somewhat limits blast radius compared to a full RCE or data-exfiltration class flaw.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An unauthenticated attacker identifies a WordPress site running Event Tickets Manager for WooCommerce version 1.5.5 or earlier, then sends a crafted HTTP POST request to the site's WordPress AJAX handler or REST API endpoint exposed by the plugin, bypassing the absent authorization check to invoke a privileged plugin action - such as modifying event ticket availability, altering ticket status, or disrupting the ticketing workflow. No public POC exists at time of analysis, but the low complexity and lack of authentication make this straightforward to exploit once the specific vulnerable endpoint is identified.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 13, 2026

Missing Authorization (CWE-862) in the Event Tickets Manager for WooCommerce WordPress plugin versions through 1.5.5 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to exploit incorrectly configured access control levels, resulting in limited but unauthorized modification of data and disruption of availability. The CVSS vector (PR:N/UI:N) confirms exploitation requires no authentication and no user interaction, lowering the barrier for abuse against any WordPress site with the plugin installed and active. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

RemediationAI

Update the Event Tickets Manager for WooCommerce plugin to a version beyond 1.5.5. The Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/event-tickets-manager-for-woocommerce/vulnerability/wordpress-event-tickets-manager-for-woocommerce-plugin-1-5-5-broken-access-control-vulnerability) should be consulted for the confirmed patched release version, as no exact fix version number was included in the available source data - the patched version is not independently confirmed from this dataset. If an immediate update is not possible, a compensating control is to deactivate the plugin entirely until the patch is applied; this eliminates the attack surface but disables all event ticketing functionality. Web application firewall (WAF) rules targeting unauthorized access to the plugin's specific AJAX actions or REST endpoints may also reduce exposure, but the specific endpoint names are not confirmed in the available data and such rules should be validated against false-positive risk.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected component is the WP Swings 'Event Tickets Manager for WooCommerce' plugin (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:wp_swings:event_tickets_manager_for_woocommerce:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), a WordPress plugin extending WooCommerce with event ticketing functionality. CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) indicates the plugin registers one or more endpoints - likely WordPress AJAX actions or REST API routes - without enforcing capability checks (e.g., current_user_can()) before executing privileged operations. This is a classic WordPress plugin pattern failure: functionality is exposed over HTTP without verifying whether the caller has permission to invoke it, distinct from authentication bypass (which bypasses identity verification) - here, identity may be irrelevant because no authorization gate exists at all. The tag 'Authentication Bypass' from Patchstack suggests the missing check effectively grants unauthenticated actors access to privileged plugin actions.
