What is CVE-2025-5530?
The WPC Smart Compare for WooCommerce plugin allows authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher to exploit a vulnerability related to stored cross-site scripting. This occurs through insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of user-supplied attributes in the plugin's 'shortcode_btn' shortcode, enabling attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts. These scripts can be executed on pages whenever they are accessed by users, posing significant security risks.
