Technical summary

The Product Import Export for WooCommerce plugin by WebToffee fails to properly enforce authorization checks on functionality related to product import and export operations. An attacker with low-privileged authenticated access can bypass intended access controls, potentially allowing unauthorized access to product data or manipulation of import/export processes. The vulnerability stems from broken access control implementation (CWE-862) rather than authentication bypass.
