Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Related Products for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.3.15

Description The issue arises from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes in the woo-related shortcode. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages. The injected scripts will execute whenever a user accesses the injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 3.3.15, update to a version higher than 3.3.15 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the woo-related shortcode for users with contributor-level and above permissions until a patch is available.
