CoCart through 4.8.4 permits an unauthenticated request to reach a plugin operation without the required access-control check. The Patchstack CNA record does not disclose the REST route, action, parameter, function, protected object or concrete operation, so the exact integrity or confidentiality impact remains unknown.
