CVE-2026-97660: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in wpclever WPC Product Options for WooCommerce
The WPC Product Options for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via wpcpo-* Array Key via Multipart Field Name in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This is exploitable via guest checkout without authentication because the malicious payload is embedded in a multipart Content-Disposition field name beginning with 'wpcpo-', which PHP's RFC1867 parser preserves byte-for-byte and stores into order item meta.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-97660 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the WPC Product Options for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress. The flaw exists in versions up to 4.0.5 due to improper neutralization of input in multipart Content-Disposition field names beginning with 'wpcpo-'. PHP's RFC1867 parser preserves these field names byte-for-byte and stores them into order item meta without adequate sanitization or escaping, enabling unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts that execute when a user views the injected page. This vulnerability is exploitable without authentication, including during guest checkout.
Potential Impact
An attacker can inject arbitrary web scripts that execute in the context of users visiting the affected pages. This can lead to theft of user credentials, session hijacking, or other malicious actions performed with the privileges of the victim user. The vulnerability affects confidentiality and integrity but does not impact availability. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.2 (High) with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and scope changed.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or fix is currently documented. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, users should consider disabling the plugin or restricting access to affected functionality. Monitoring for updates from the vendor wpclever is recommended.
