Description

The MultiVendorX – WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace AI Powered Solutions plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the store description submitted through store registration in versions 5.0.0 through 5.0.20, due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. The stores REST endpoint lets any logged-in user register a store and saved the description without sanitization, and the admin store details view renders it as raw HTML. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when an administrator views the store in the dashboard.
