Published Jul 17, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Reflected XSS in Flycart Discount Rules for WooCommerce before 2.4.2 allows remote attackers to execute script in an administrator's browser. The admin discount-rule page writes the name query parameter into an HTML attribute without output escaping, allowing attribute breakout. Exploitation requires a logged-in administrator to open a crafted plugin-page URL; the script can read or alter page data and issue same-origin requests.
