CVE-2026-16993DHL for WooCommerce < 4.0.1 - Unauthenticated Shipping Label Disclosure via Unprotected Uploads Directory
Low 3.7
In plain English
A low-severity information exposure in DHL Shipping Germany for WooCommerce from Unknown. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.3% (higher than 19% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The DHL Shipping Germany for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 4.0.1 does not protect its shipping-label storage directory with server-independent access control, relying only on an Apache .htaccess file, so on a web server that does not honor .htaccess (such as nginx) an unauthenticated visitor can download stored shipping labels (each containing a customer's name and postal address) by requesting predictable filenames.
