## Description

The Customer Reviews for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the frontend review, all-reviews and Q&A search features in all versions up to, and including, 5.127.0. This is due to the user-supplied search term being passed to the WP_Comment_Query 'search' argument, which also matches the non-public comment_author_email and comment_author_IP fields. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to work out reviewers' email addresses and IP addresses by seeing which search terms return a given review.
