Description

The WPC Smart Compare for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'shortcode_btn' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 6.4.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Affected WordPress components

A confirmed match is backed by the plugin or theme slug. A possible match is based on the product name only and should be verified.

Affected products and versions

  • wpclever WPC Smart Compare for WooCommerce — Up to and including 6.4.6
  • wpclever wpc_smart_compare_for_woocommerce — Before 6.4.7
