medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 414084

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- WooCommerce is an open-source e-commerce platform built on WordPress. A vulnerability introduced in
WooCommerce 8.8 allows for cross-site scripting. A bad actor can manipulate a link to include malicious
HTML & JavaScript content. While the content is not saved to the database, the links may be sent to
victims for malicious purposes. The injected JavaScript could hijack content & data stored in the browser,
including the session. The URL content is read through the `Sourcebuster.js` library and then inserted
without proper sanitization to the classic checkout and registration forms. Versions 8.8.5 and 8.9.3
contain a patch for the issue. As a workaround, one may disable the Order Attribution feature.
