Reflected XSS via unescaped message parameter
Published Feb 7, 2022 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Reflected XSS in Visser Labs Store Exporter for WooCommerce before 2.7.1 allows remote attackers to execute script in an administrator's browser. The woo_ce administration page inserts the message query parameter into its error notice without HTML escaping, so crafted markup becomes executable content. Exploitation requires an administrator to open a crafted URL, and successful script runs in that authenticated WordPress session.
