CVE-2025-64269 identifies a Missing Authorization vulnerability in the EDGARROJAS WooCommerce PDF Invoice Builder plugin, affecting versions up to and including 1.2.150. This vulnerability arises from incorrectly configured access control mechanisms that fail to properly verify user permissions before granting access to invoice-related functionalities. Specifically, unauthorized users can exploit this flaw to access or interact with PDF invoice generation or viewing features without the necessary authorization. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network (AV:N), requires low attack complexity (AC:L), does not require privileges (PR:N), but does require user interaction (UI:R), such as clicking a malicious link. The scope remains unchanged (S:U), and the impact is limited to confidentiality (C:L), with no impact on integrity or availability. No known public exploits or active exploitation campaigns have been reported to date. The plugin is commonly used in WooCommerce-based e-commerce platforms to generate and manage PDF invoices, making this vulnerability relevant to online retailers. The lack of proper authorization checks could allow attackers to access sensitive invoice data, potentially exposing customer information or business transaction details. The vulnerability was reserved on 2025-10-29 and published on 2025-11-13, with no patch links currently available, indicating that remediation may be pending. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 4.3, categorizing it as medium severity.

For European organizations, particularly those operating e-commerce platforms using WooCommerce with the EDGARROJAS PDF Invoice Builder plugin, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized disclosure of invoice data. This could lead to exposure of customer personal information, transaction details, and potentially sensitive business data, undermining confidentiality. Although the vulnerability does not affect data integrity or system availability, the leakage of confidential information can damage customer trust, violate data protection regulations such as GDPR, and result in reputational harm. The requirement for user interaction means phishing or social engineering could be used to lure users into triggering the exploit. The absence of known exploits reduces immediate risk, but the medium severity score and the widespread use of WooCommerce in Europe mean that attackers may target this vulnerability once exploit code becomes available. Organizations handling large volumes of sensitive customer data or operating in regulated sectors (e.g., finance, retail) face higher risks.

1. Monitor for official patches or updates from EDGARROJAS and apply them immediately once available to address the missing authorization flaw. 2. In the interim, restrict access to the PDF Invoice Builder plugin’s endpoints using web application firewalls (WAFs) or server-level access controls to limit exposure to unauthorized users. 3. Implement strict role-based access control (RBAC) within WooCommerce and WordPress to ensure only authorized users can access invoice generation and viewing features. 4. Conduct regular audits of user permissions and plugin configurations to detect and remediate misconfigurations. 5. Educate users about phishing risks to reduce the likelihood of successful social engineering attacks that could trigger the vulnerability. 6. Employ network monitoring to detect unusual access patterns to invoice-related resources. 7. Consider temporarily disabling the plugin if immediate patching is not possible and the risk is deemed high. 8. Maintain up-to-date backups of e-commerce data to ensure recovery in case of broader compromise.
