• Public exploit or detection template: none known

Description

The WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to HTML Injection in all versions up to, and including, 9.0.2. This is due to the plugin not properly neutralizing HTML elements from submitted order forms. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary HTML that will render when the administrator views order form submissions.

Affected products

• Automattic WooCommerce: before 9.1.0 — fixed in 9.1.0

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: Automattic WooCommerce 9.1.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
