What the vulnerability does
01Description
The WooCommerce Placetopay Gateway and PlacetoPay/AvalPay gateway plugins for WordPress are vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'redirect-url' parameter in versions up to, and including, 3.2.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
