Description
The WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the get_variation AJAX action in all versions from 2.4.0 up to, and including, 11.2.2. This is due to a missing post password check. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve the variation data of password-protected variable products without knowing the product password, including the variation descriptions that the product page and the Store API only show after the password is entered.
