Stock History & Reports Manager for WooCommerce Stored Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the Stock History & Reports Manager for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 2.2.1. The vulnerability arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping of user-supplied attributes in the 'alg_wc_stock_snapshot_restocked' shortcode. This flaw allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages, which are executed when users access the affected pages.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for stored cross-site scripting, where injected scripts are executed in the context of the user viewing the page.
