CVE-2023-33316Network attack vector

Data modification and service interruption via undisclosed CSRF

Published May 28, 2023 · Updated Apr 28, 2026

Cross-site request forgery in WooCommerce AutomateWoo 4.9.40 and earlier allows remote attackers to modify data or interrupt service. The CNA and referenced advisory do not identify the affected request handlers or the missing validation operation. Exploitation requires a victim with an active session to interact with attacker-controlled content; the published vendor assessment reports integrity and availability impact but no confidentiality impact.
