CVE-2024-10437Network attack vector

Unauthorized message state changes via unchecked AJAX authorization

Published Oct 29, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026

Missing authorization in ajax_enable in WPC Smart Messages for WooCommerce 4.2.1 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to change message states. The AJAX handler activates or deactivates a smart message without verifying that the caller has an administrative capability. Subscriber-level access is sufficient, and the bounded consequence is unauthorized activation or deactivation of storefront messages.
