The Grid/List View for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'position' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The shortcode's all_page="1" attribute can be used to force the widget to render on any page, expanding the attack surface beyond shop and category pages.
AnalysisAI
Stored Cross-Site Scripting in the Grid/List View for WooCommerce WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 3.0.9) enables authenticated contributors to inject persistent malicious scripts via the unsanitized 'position' shortcode attribute, executing against every visitor who loads an affected page. The plugin's all_page="1" shortcode attribute compounds severity by forcing the widget to render site-wide, meaning a single injected post can target all visitors rather than only those on shop or category pages. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing identified at time of analysis; a patch has been committed to the WordPress plugin repository.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability (CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) stems from insufficient sanitization of the 'position' shortcode attribute before it is echoed into rendered HTML. Source analysis via the WordPress plugin Trac reveals three implicated files: list-grid.php (line 14), widget.php (line 22), and main.php (line 171), indicating the unsanitized value flows through both the widget rendering path and the main shortcode handler. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:berocket:grid/list_view_for_woocommerce:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms all plugin releases by BeRocket up to and including 3.0.9 are affected. The all_page="1" attribute, which overrides normal scope restrictions and forces widget rendering on every WordPress page, is the mechanism that elevates the effective attack surface beyond the WooCommerce shop context.
RemediationAI
An upstream fix has been committed to the WordPress plugin repository at changeset 3611837 (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&old=3611837%40gridlist-view-for-woocommerce&new=3611837%40gridlist-view-for-woocommerce); however, the specific patched release version number has not been independently confirmed from the available data - verify through the WordPress plugin directory that a version beyond 3.0.9 is available before updating. As an immediate compensating control, site administrators should audit existing content for shortcode usage containing the 'position' attribute and consider restricting or removing contributor-level user accounts on sites that do not require open editorial access. Disabling the plugin entirely until a confirmed patched version is applied eliminates the attack vector with the trade-off of losing the grid/list toggle functionality for shop pages.
