Published Jul 20, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Reflected XSS in YITHEMES YITH WooCommerce AJAX Product Filter 5.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute browser scripts. The published advisory attributes the flaw to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping but does not identify the affected parameter, function, or template. Execution requires a victim to open an attacker-crafted link, and the script runs in that victim's browser context.
