    Hi,

    Per Wordfence: “The Store Exporter for WooCommerce – Export Products, Export Orders, Export Subscriptions, and More plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting due to the use of add_query_arg without appropriate escaping on the URL in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.3. 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.”

    Will this be fixed soon?

    Hi @dave8441 thanks for the report. This is the first I’m hearing of this as it wasn’t properly disclosed to our team. Please allow us to investigate and if necessary we will release a patch.

    Hi @dave8441 on investigating this is already fixed in 2.7.3 (the latest version). WordFence’s report is incorrect and I’ve contacted them to amend.

    Thanks for reaching out all the same, we do take these reports seriously.

    Hi @jkohlbach,

    Thanks for responding to this incorrect alert by Wordfence so quickly. They also contacted me and verified they have fixed their false-positive alert. BTW, I just gave your plugin a 5-star review on WordPress.
