What is known

The WooCommerce Customers Manager WordPress plugin before 30.2 does not have authorisation and CSRF in various AJAX actions, allowing any authenticated users, such as subscriber, to call them and update/delete/create customer metadata, also leading to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to the lack of escaping of said metadata values.

Business impact

Successful exploitation of CVE-2024-1747, a medium vulnerability (CVSS 6.5) affecting woocommerce customers manager, may affect the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the vulnerable environment. The exact impact depends on the installed version, exposed interfaces and deployment configuration.
