Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
This affects WordPress/WooCommerce sites using AlgolPlus Advanced Dynamic Pricing for WooCommerce version 4.1.3 or older. A CSRF flaw could let an attacker abuse a logged-in user's browser to change something the user is allowed to change. The sources do not identify active exploitation or the exact impacted action.
Executive priority
Treat as a moderate e-commerce configuration risk, not an emergency based on supplied evidence. Prioritize affected revenue-generating WooCommerce sites because pricing manipulation or disruption could affect sales operations.
Technical view
CVE-2022-38095 is CWE-352 CSRF in Advanced Dynamic Pricing for WooCommerce <=4.1.3. CVSS 3.1 is 5.4: network reachable, low complexity, no attacker privileges, user interaction required, no confidentiality impact, low integrity and availability impact. Public sources do not provide endpoint-level details.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to WordPress sites running WooCommerce with the affected AlgolPlus pricing plugin at version 4.1.3 or earlier.
Exploitation context
The CVE is not listed as KEV in the supplied bundle, and no cited source states active exploitation. CSRF requires user interaction, typically involving a logged-in authorized user visiting attacker-controlled content.
Researcher notes
The public bundle confirms product, affected version range, CWE, CVSS vector, and references, but not the vulnerable endpoint, required victim role, patch version, or exploit telemetry. Avoid assuming exploitability details beyond CSRF and UI-required behavior.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory WordPress sites for Advanced Dynamic Pricing for WooCommerce versions 4.1.3 or older.
- Check AlgolPlus and WordPress plugin guidance for a fixed version or recommended mitigation.
- Update the plugin if vendor guidance identifies a non-affected release.
- Disable the plugin if exposure is confirmed and no safe update is available.
Validation and detection
- Confirm plugin presence and version from WordPress administration or asset inventory.
- Review WooCommerce pricing behavior for unauthorized or unexpected changes.
- Check web and application logs around pricing configuration changes.
- Verify the plugin is no longer at version 4.1.3 or earlier after remediation.
