An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-34646 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Pluggabl LLC Booster for WooCommcerce. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-34646/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-34646/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-34646","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-34646/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-34646","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q3w8-grp4-hc32"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass authentication and log in as any user, including administrators, due to weak token generation in the email verification module.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[{"product":"booster_for_woocommerce","vendor":"booster"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-330","name":"Use of Insufficiently Random Values"},{"id":"CWE-290","name":"Authentication Bypass by Spoofing"}],"description":"Versions up to, and including, 5.4.3, of the Booster for WooCommerce WordPress plugin are vulnerable to authentication bypass via the process_email_verification function due to a random token generation weakness in the reset_and_mail_activation_link function found in the ~/includes/class-wcj-emails-verification.php file. This allows attackers to impersonate users and trigger an email address verification for arbitrary accounts, including administrative accounts, and automatically be logged in as that user, including any site administrators. This requires the Email Verification module to be active in the plugin and the Login User After Successful Verification setting to be enabled, which it is by default.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2021-09-04","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":2,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2021-09-04T14:19:05Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/motikan2010/CVE-2021-34646","stars":2,"title":"CVE-2021-34646 PoC"},{"date":"2024-05-15T06:35:42Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/0xB455/CVE-2021-34646","stars":1,"title":"PoC for CVE-2021-34646"},{"date":"2021-09-17","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"50299","stars":null,"title":"WordPress Plugin WooCommerce Booster Plugin 5.4.3 - Authentication Bypass"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Booster for WooCommerce \u003c= 5.4.3 Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2021-34646","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Ninja Forms \u003c= 3.5.7 Sensitive Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2021-34647"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Shopping Cart \u0026 eCommerce Store \u003c= 5.1.0 Cross-Site Request Forgery to Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-34645"},"products":["Booster for WooCommcerce"],"published":"2021-08-30","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Elite Booster for WooCommerce \u003c= 7.1.7 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2024-1986","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-07"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Booster for WooCommerce \u003c= 7.2.4 - Unauthenticated Double Extension Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2024-13342","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-08-29"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Booster for WooCommerce 4.0.1 - 7.2.4 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2024-13744","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-04-04"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Booster for WooCommerce - Checkout Files Deletion via CSRF","id":"CVE-2022-3763","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-21"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Booster for WooCommerce 4.0.1 - 7.2.4 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2024-13708","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-04-04"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Booster for WooCommerce \u003c= 7.2.4 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2024-12278","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-04-01"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-05","vendors":["Pluggabl LLC"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass authentication and log in as any user, including administrators, due to weak token generation in the email verification module.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-34646/"}
