Analysis

No active exploitation has been confirmed.
Technical Context
This vulnerability is classified as CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation), which represents a fundamental input validation and output encoding failure. The WPFactory Maximum Products per User for WooCommerce plugin fails to properly sanitize and escape user-supplied input before rendering it in HTML context on web pages. Stored XSS vulnerabilities occur when untrusted data is persisted in a database or application state and later rendered without sanitization, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the browsers of other users who view the affected page. The plugin integrates with WooCommerce (a WordPress e-commerce platform) and manages per-user product purchase limits, meaning the injection point likely exists in administrative interfaces or product configuration sections where user input is captured and later displayed.
Affected Products
WPFactory Maximum Products per User for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress and WooCommerce is affected in all versions from the initial release through version 4.4.3. The plugin operates as a WordPress plugin component (CPE context: wordpress plugins for e-commerce product management). Users running version 4.4.3 or earlier on any WordPress installation with WooCommerce are potentially vulnerable. The vulnerability was identified and reported by Patchstack security research ([email protected]), with detailed information available in the Patchstack vulnerability database.
Remediation

Users should navigate to their WordPress plugin dashboard, locate the plugin, and update to the latest available version released by WPFactory following the disclosure of CVE-2025-62096.
