CVE-2025-57914 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability identified in the WordPress plugin "Deliver via Shipos for WooCommerce" developed by Matat Technologies. This plugin integrates shipping and delivery services into WooCommerce, a widely used e-commerce platform on WordPress. The vulnerability affects versions up to 3.0.2 and allows an attacker to trick an authenticated user into submitting unwanted requests to the web application without their consent. Specifically, the CSRF flaw enables attackers to perform unauthorized actions on behalf of legitimate users by exploiting the lack of proper anti-CSRF tokens or validation mechanisms within the plugin's request handling. According to the CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N), the attack can be executed remotely over the network without requiring privileges, but it does require user interaction (such as clicking a malicious link). The impact is limited to integrity, meaning attackers can cause unauthorized changes (e.g., modifying shipping details or order parameters) but cannot directly compromise confidentiality or availability. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, and no patches have been linked yet. The vulnerability is classified as medium severity based on the CVSS score of 4.3. The CWE classification is CWE-352, which corresponds to CSRF weaknesses where state-changing requests are not adequately protected against forged requests.

For European organizations using WooCommerce with the Deliver via Shipos plugin, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized manipulation of shipping or order data. Attackers could potentially alter delivery addresses, shipping options, or other order-related parameters by tricking employees or customers into executing malicious requests. This could lead to shipment misdirection, financial losses, customer dissatisfaction, and reputational damage. While the vulnerability does not allow direct data theft or service disruption, the integrity compromise could facilitate fraud or operational disruptions in e-commerce workflows. Given the widespread adoption of WooCommerce in Europe, especially among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) engaged in online retail, the threat could affect a significant number of businesses. Additionally, organizations subject to strict data protection regulations like GDPR must consider the indirect risks of data mishandling or unauthorized order changes that could lead to compliance issues. The requirement for user interaction somewhat limits the attack surface, but phishing or social engineering campaigns could be leveraged to exploit this vulnerability.

To mitigate this CSRF vulnerability, European organizations should: 1) Immediately check for and apply any official patches or updates released by Matat Technologies addressing CVE-2025-57914. 2) If no patch is available, consider temporarily disabling the Deliver via Shipos plugin or replacing it with alternative shipping plugins that implement proper CSRF protections. 3) Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block suspicious cross-site requests targeting the WooCommerce environment. 4) Educate users and staff about phishing and social engineering risks to reduce the likelihood of user interaction exploitation. 5) Review and harden WooCommerce and WordPress security configurations, including enforcing strict user roles and permissions to limit the impact of compromised accounts. 6) Monitor logs for unusual order modifications or shipping changes that could indicate exploitation attempts. 7) Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers and SameSite cookie attributes to reduce the risk of CSRF attacks. These steps go beyond generic advice by focusing on plugin-specific actions, user awareness, and layered defenses tailored to the e-commerce context.
