## Description

The HUSKY – Products Filter for WooCommerce Professional plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'woof_text' parameter (text search label) in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.2. This is due to the HTML-escaped search text being placed into the woof_ext_filter_titles data passed to wp_localize_script(), which decodes HTML entities, so the escaping is undone and the text is later rendered as HTML by the front-end filter script. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into clicking a crafted link.
