What the vulnerability does
The SKU Generator for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting due to the use of add_query_arg without appropriate escaping on the URL in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.2. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
SKU Generator for WooCommerce versions up to 1.6.2 contain a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that allows attackers to inject malicious scripts. The vulnerability requires user interaction—typically clicking a malicious link—and can affect other users on the site. An attacker with no authentication can craft a payload that executes in a victim's browser, potentially stealing session data or performing actions on their behalf.
What an attacker can do
Inject malicious JavaScript that runs in other users' browsers when they visit a crafted link.
Potential impact on your site
Site visitors can be tricked into executing attacker code, risking account compromise or data theft.
Conditions required to exploit
Victim must click a malicious link or visit an attacker-controlled page; no authentication required.
