What is CVE-2026-78371?

The File Uploads Addon for WooCommerce prior to version 1.7.6 is susceptible to an improper authorization issue. The plugin fails to ensure that the requester of a customer-uploaded file is indeed the customer who uploaded it. This oversight allows unauthenticated attackers to potentially download files uploaded by other customers, using either knowledge of or guesses at the file names.

Affected Version(s)

File Uploads Addon for WooCommerce 1.7.2 < 1.7.6

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
