Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WooCommerce Affiliate Plugin versions prior to 4.16.4.5

Recommendations For versions prior to 4.16.4.5, update to version 4.16.4.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the plugin's settings page to minimize the risk of exploitation.
