CVE-2026-11364: CWE-862 Missing Authorization in dornaweb Product Specifications for Woocommerce
The Product Specifications for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification, creation, and deletion of data in versions up to and including 0.8.9. This is due to a missing capability check and missing nonce verification in the __invoke() methods of the AttributeGroupController and AttributeController classes, which are bound to the 'dwps_modify_groups' and 'dwps_modify_attributes' AJAX actions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to create, edit, and delete arbitrary product specification groups and attributes (taxonomy terms in the 'spec-group' and attribute taxonomies), corrupting business data and impacting the site's frontend display.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-11364 is a missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) in the Product Specifications for WooCommerce plugin by dornaweb. The vulnerability arises from the lack of capability checks and nonce verification in the __invoke() methods of the AttributeGroupController and AttributeController classes, which handle AJAX actions 'dwps_modify_groups' and 'dwps_modify_attributes'. This allows authenticated users with low privileges (Subscriber-level and above) to create, edit, and delete arbitrary product specification groups and attributes (taxonomy terms), potentially corrupting business data and impacting the site's frontend.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows unauthorized modification, creation, and deletion of product specification groups and attributes by authenticated users with Subscriber-level access or higher. This can corrupt business data and negatively impact the frontend display of the WooCommerce site. There is no direct confidentiality or availability impact reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict user roles to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity related to product specification modifications. Avoid granting Subscriber-level users unnecessary access to AJAX actions related to product specifications.
