AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, consider disabling the Customer Reviews for WooCommerce plugin or restricting access to review submission endpoints via web application firewall rules or other access controls to prevent unauthorized review submissions.

Description

The Customer Reviews for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'submit_review' function in all versions up to, and including, 5.38.12. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to submit reviews with arbitrary email addresses regardless of whether reviews are globally enabled.
