Exploitation Conditions

No authentication is required - the CVSS vector PR:N confirms unauthenticated exploitation over the network. The plugin must be installed and active on a WordPress site running WooCommerce; no non-default configuration is required beyond having the plugin enabled. Exploitation is limited to low-integrity writes with no confidentiality or availability impact (C:N/A:N in the CVSS vector). The specific AJAX action or REST endpoint that lacks the authorization check is not named in the available advisory data, which slightly raises the practical bar for exploitation since attackers must identify the vulnerable hook through source code review or fuzzing. The flaw does not affect WordPress core or WooCommerce itself - only sites with this specific plugin installed.

Impact

The real-world risk of this vulnerability is moderate at most, and several signals temper it below its network-accessible surface. The CVSS 5.3 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N) correctly reflects that the vulnerability is remotely exploitable without authentication, but scope is unaffected and impact is limited to low-integrity writes - suggesting targeted disruption to pricing or measurement configuration rather than full site compromise. There is no KEV listing and no confirmed public exploit code, so exploitation in the wild remains unconfirmed. EPSS data was not provided, but Patchstack's disclosure of a plugin with a niche measurement-pricing function implies limited attacker interest compared to higher-traffic WooCommerce targets. Even a mid-sized online retailer in kielce relying on this plugin for custom unit pricing could experience order manipulation or incorrect price computation, but the absence of confidentiality or availability impact keeps the blast radius contained. The 'Authentication Bypass' tag applied to this CVE is inaccurate - this is a missing authorization flaw (CWE-862), not an authentication bypass - which slightly inflates perceived severity in automated triage workflows. Overall, this is a real but low-priority item outside environments where price/quantity integrity is business-critical.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An unauthenticated attacker identifies a WooCommerce site running plugin version 2.3.21 or earlier, then sends a crafted HTTP POST request directly to the WordPress AJAX endpoint targeting a plugin action that lacks a capability check. This allows the attacker to modify measurement or pricing parameters - such as altering unit quantities or triggering restricted configuration changes - without holding any WordPress account, potentially causing incorrect pricing to be presented to customers or disrupting order calculations.

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 11, 2026

Broken access control in the Flexible Quantity - Measurement Price Calculator for WooCommerce plugin (WPDesk) version 2.3.21 and earlier allows unauthenticated network attackers to perform restricted actions due to missing server-side authorization checks. The vulnerability (CWE-862) results in low-severity integrity impact - likely unauthorized manipulation of quantity or pricing-related plugin functionality - without requiring credentials or user interaction. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis, and Patchstack reported this as a standard missing-authorization class issue with a CVSS base score of 5.3.

RemediationAI

The primary remediation is to update the Flexible Quantity - Measurement Price Calculator for WooCommerce plugin to a version beyond 2.3.21; however, the exact patched version number is not independently confirmed in the available data - consult the WordPress plugin repository or the Patchstack advisory at the reference URL for the current fixed release. As a compensating control for sites unable to update immediately, administrators can deactivate the plugin until a patch is applied, accepting the trade-off of losing measurement-based pricing functionality. Web application firewall rules that block unauthenticated POST requests to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php with action parameters associated with this plugin may reduce exposure but require identifying the specific AJAX action hooks, which are not named in the public advisory.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected product is the WPDesk 'Flexible Quantity - Measurement Price Calculator for WooCommerce' WordPress plugin (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:wpdesk:flexible_quantity_-_measurement_price_calculator_for_woocommerce:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), which extends WooCommerce to support measurement-based pricing (e.g., per meter, per kilogram). CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) indicates that one or more plugin endpoints or AJAX actions fail to verify whether the requesting user has permission to perform the requested operation, allowing unauthenticated callers to invoke functionality intended only for privileged roles such as shop managers or administrators. This is a common WordPress/WooCommerce plugin pattern where nonce checks are present for CSRF but capability checks (current_user_can()) are absent, leaving actions accessible over HTTP to any caller.
