CVE-2025-69024: 
WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

CVE-2025-69024 is a Missing Authorization vulnerability in the BizPrint WordPress plugin (by bizswoop), which allows authenticated attackers with low privileges to exploit incorrectly configured access control security levels. The vulnerability affects BizPrint versions from n/a through 4.6.7 (inclusive). It was published on December 30, 2025, and assigned by Patchstack. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 6.5 (Medium), reflecting network-based exploitation requiring low privileges with high confidentiality impact (Feedly, Patchstack).

Technical details

The root cause is classified as CWE-862 (Missing Authorization), meaning the plugin fails to properly verify that a requesting user has the necessary permissions before performing sensitive operations. An authenticated attacker with minimal privileges (e.g., a subscriber-level WordPress account) can send crafted network requests to restricted plugin endpoints that lack proper capability checks. No user interaction is required, and attack complexity is low, making exploitation straightforward for any authenticated user (Feedly).

Impact

Successful exploitation results in a high confidentiality impact — an attacker can access sensitive information that should be restricted to higher-privileged users, such as print job data, WooCommerce order details, or plugin configuration settings. Integrity and availability are not directly impacted by this vulnerability. The scope is limited to the affected WordPress installation, but exposure of WooCommerce order data could have significant business and privacy implications (Feedly).

Exploitability

No public proof-of-concept exploit code or in-the-wild exploitation has been reported for CVE-2025-69024 as of the available data. The EPSS score is approximately 0.017% (0.000170), indicating a very low probability of exploitation in the near term. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. Exploitation requires at minimum a low-privileged authenticated account on the target WordPress site (Feedly).

Exploitation steps

  1. Reconnaissance: Identify WordPress sites running the BizPrint plugin (version ≤ 4.6.7) by scanning for the plugin's presence via common WordPress plugin enumeration techniques (e.g., checking /wp-content/plugins/print-google-cloud-print-gcp-woocommerce/).
  2. Obtain Low-Privilege Access: Register or obtain a low-privileged WordPress account (e.g., subscriber role) on the target site, or use existing credentials.
  3. Identify Unprotected Endpoints: Enumerate the plugin's AJAX actions or REST API endpoints that lack proper capability checks — these are the access-controlled functions missing authorization verification.
  4. Send Crafted Request: Issue authenticated HTTP requests (e.g., WordPress AJAX calls with action=<plugin_action> and a valid nonce if required) to the vulnerable endpoint, bypassing the intended access restrictions.
  5. Exfiltrate Sensitive Data: Retrieve the response containing restricted data such as print job configurations, WooCommerce order details, or plugin settings that should only be accessible to administrators.

Indicators of compromise

  • Logs: WordPress access logs showing repeated authenticated POST requests to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php with BizPrint-specific action parameters from low-privileged user accounts.
  • Logs: Unusual access patterns from subscriber or customer-level user accounts to BizPrint plugin endpoints outside of normal business hours.
  • Network: Unexpected outbound data transfers from the WordPress server following authenticated requests to plugin endpoints.
  • File System: No direct file system artifacts expected for this access control bypass, but review WordPress debug logs (wp-content/debug.log) for unauthorized access attempts to plugin functions.

Mitigation and workarounds

Users should update the BizPrint plugin to a version beyond 4.6.7 that includes proper authorization checks — check the WordPress plugin repository or the vendor (bizswoop) for a patched release. If an update is not immediately available, site administrators should consider deactivating the BizPrint plugin until a fix is confirmed. Additionally, restrict WordPress user registration to trusted individuals and enforce the principle of least privilege for all accounts (Patchstack).
