Overview
CVE-2025-66089 identifies a missing authorization vulnerability within the WebToffee Product Feed for WooCommerce plugin. This vulnerability, categorized as “Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels,” allows unauthorized users to potentially access or modify sensitive data or functionalities. The affected versions of the plugin are up to and including version 2.3.1.
Technical Details
The root cause of CVE-2025-66089 is a failure to properly validate user permissions before granting access to certain features or data within the WebToffee Product Feed for WooCommerce plugin. Specifically, the plugin does not adequately verify if the user initiating an action has the necessary privileges to perform that action. This “broken access control” can manifest in various ways, depending on the specific functionality exposed by the plugin.
An attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability by:
- Accessing product feed configurations that should be restricted to administrators.
- Modifying product feed settings, potentially leading to inaccurate or malicious product listings on connected platforms.
- Exfiltrating sensitive information related to product feeds or connected accounts.
CVSS Analysis
Currently, the CVSS score is listed as N/A, indicating that a comprehensive assessment of the vulnerability’s severity has not yet been completed. However, given the nature of broken access control vulnerabilities, it’s crucial to treat this issue with a high level of urgency. A proper CVSS score is needed to accurately assess the risk. Once that assessment is complete, we’ll update this post.
Possible Impact
The potential impact of exploiting CVE-2025-66089 can be significant. An attacker gaining unauthorized access could:
- Damage Product Listings: Manipulating product feed settings can lead to incorrect or misleading product information being displayed on connected marketplaces, impacting sales and reputation.
- Compromise Sensitive Data: Accessing feed configurations might expose API keys or credentials used to connect to external platforms, potentially compromising those accounts as well.
- Cause Denial of Service: Maliciously configured product feeds can potentially overload connected systems, leading to service disruptions.
