What the vulnerability does

01Description

The Whole Enquiry Cart for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘woowhole_success_msg’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.

This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.
