Unauthenticated shortcode execution via unvalidated tracking number
Published May 10, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Code injection in VillaTheme WooCommerce Orders Tracking 1.2.10 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes. The tracking-number path in includes/frontend/frontend.php passes insufficiently validated input to do_shortcode, which evaluates embedded shortcode syntax. No authentication or user interaction is required; resulting data access or modification depends on the shortcodes installed on the site.
