Subscriber-level settings deletion via missing capability check
Published May 21, 2026 · Updated May 21, 2026
Missing authorization in GSheet For Woo Importer 2.3.1 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to delete plugin settings. The process_ajax_restore_action() AJAX handler performs the reset without a capability check, deleting the Google Sheets API token and configuration options. Subscriber-level access is sufficient; the bounded consequence is loss of the stored integration configuration, not deletion of WooCommerce product data.
