- Severity: CVSS 5.3 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=yes, technicalImpact=partial

## Affected

- perfitdev Perfit WooCommerce: through 1.0.1

## Description

The Perfit WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.1. This is due to missing authorization checks on the `logout` function called via the `actions` function hooked to `admin_init`. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary plugin settings via the `action` parameter.
