📄 Description (English)
The FloristPress for Woo – Customize your eCommerce store for your Florist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'noresults' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.8.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the user supplied 'noresults' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
🤖 AI Executive Summary
FloristPress for Woo plugin versions up to 7.8.2 contain a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the 'noresults' parameter, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts. While no exploit is currently available and the CVSS score is medium (6.1), this vulnerability poses a significant risk to Saudi e-commerce businesses relying on WordPress-based florist stores. Immediate mitigation is required as no patch is currently available.
