Product Table for WooCommerce Reflected Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the Product Table for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 5.0.8. The issue arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages. These scripts could be executed if a user is tricked into clicking a link.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for reflected cross-site scripting, where an attacker can inject malicious scripts that are executed in the context of the user's browser.

Reproduction

The vulnerability can be reproduced by sending a request to a page that uses the Product Table for WooCommerce plugin, including the 'search_key' parameter with injected script content. If the injection is successful, the script will execute in the user's browser.

Remediation

Users are advised to update the Product Table for WooCommerce plugin to version 5.0.9 or later.
