Authenticated data disclosure via missing capability check
Published Dec 31, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Missing authorization in WooCommerce Subscriptions before 5.8.0 allows remote authenticated users to read unspecified data over the network. Public advisories identify a missing capability check in an undisclosed function but do not name the function or request parameter it mishandles. Contributor-level access is required, and the published assessment limits the demonstrated consequence to reading data.
