At a glance
CVE-2025-64222 is a medium-severity Missing Authorization vulnerability in the WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 24.6.0. It carries a CVSS score of 5.3 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity). Exploitation requires no authentication.

Vulnerability Overview
The WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access due to a missing capability check on a function in all versions up to, and including, 24.6.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary content.
Technical Analysis
The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no privileges on the target site, and no interaction from a victim user.
CWE-862: Missing Authorization
Reaching this weakness in WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart <= 24.6.0 takes no account at all. A missing authorization check means a function is reachable by anyone who can reach the endpoint, because the code never asks whether the caller is allowed to perform the action.
Any user who can reach the endpoint gets to run an action reserved for higher-privileged roles, from reading protected data to changing settings or content. For WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart the fix is 24.7.0: builds <= 24.6.0 are affected, anything from 24.7.0 onward is not.
Remediation
Update to version 24.7.0, or a newer patched version
How does WordSec protect against this?
This one needs no account at all, which puts it outside what login hardening can reach; WordSec's login security narrows the account-level paths around it, and the firewall is what inspects the request itself. None of that substitutes for the fix: WooCommerce Recover Abandoned Cart 24.7.0 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
