CVE-2026-1672 is a cross-site request forgery (csrf) in Realmag777 BEAR โ Bulk Editor and Products Manager Professional for WooCommerce by Pluginus.Net. The fix is to upgrade to see vendor advisory and apply the runnable commands below.
What is CVE-2026-1672?
The BEAR โ Bulk Editor and Products Manager Professional for WooCommerce by Pluginus.Net plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.5. This is due to missing nonce validation on the woobe_redraw_table_row() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update WooCommerce product data including prices, descriptions, and other product fields via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator or shop manager into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
In practical terms, a successful attacker gets cross-site request forgery against an authenticated user. There is no confirmed in-the-wild exploitation listed in CISA's KEV catalog at the time of writing, but the CVSS rating still warrants prompt patching.
Am I affected?
You are affected if you run Realmag777 BEAR โ Bulk Editor and Products Manager Professional for WooCommerce by Pluginus.Net at a version listed in the Affected row above. Probe your installed build with the commands below.

If you cannot patch immediately
These are runnable hardening commands. They reduce blast radius but they are not a replacement for the vendor patch.
No official vendor workaround is published for this CVE; patching is the documented fix. The runnable hardening below is generic defense in depth, not a substitute for the patch.
Restrict the affected service to trusted networks (Linux):
# Vendor advisory: https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/bc3b5faa-1a29-4fa7-9146-d782adce0b1f?source=cve
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport <port> -s 10.0.0.0/24 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport <port> -j DROP
Windows Firewall equivalent:
# Vendor advisory: https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/bc3b5faa-1a29-4fa7-9146-d782adce0b1f?source=cve
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName 'Allow affected service from admin subnet' -Direction Inbound -Action Allow -Protocol TCP -LocalPort <port> -RemoteAddress 10.0.0.0/24
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName 'Block affected service from everywhere else' -Direction Inbound -Action Block -Protocol TCP -LocalPort <port>
How to verify the fix worked
Run the version probe again and confirm the running build matches the Fixed in row above.
dpkg -l | grep -i "bear" # Debian/Ubuntu
rpm -qa | grep -i "bear" # RHEL/CentOS/Rocky
Expected output: the package version should meet or exceed the patched build.
Re-run any vulnerability scanner you used previously and confirm the finding for CVE-2026-1672 has cleared. Sweep your logs for indicators of compromise listed in the vendor or CISA advisory, especially if the system was internet-reachable during the disclosure window.
Frequently asked questions
Is CVE-2026-1672 being actively exploited?
Not at the time of writing. It is not listed in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. That status can change, so monitor the vendor advisory and the KEV catalog if the system is exposed.
How severe is CVE-2026-1672?
CVSS rates it 6.5 (Medium). Use that score to set your patch priority alongside the other items in your queue.
Do I have to take BEAR โ Bulk Editor and Products Manager Professional for WooCommerce by Pluginus.Net offline to apply the patch?
It depends on the deployment. High-availability or clustered installs can usually patch one node at a time with no full outage. Standalone installs typically need a short restart. Always follow the vendor's documented upgrade steps.
What if my vulnerability scanner still flags CVE-2026-1672 after I patch?
Re-run the scan after a service restart, then confirm the scanner's plugin set is up to date. Some scanners detect by banner version only and lag the official fix metadata by a release.
