MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Collection, Discovery The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires three specific, non-default administrator configurations to all be active: the Statistics extension must be enabled, external MySQL connection credentials must have been saved, and Turbo Mode must be turned on. Only under this combination does the plugin emit woof_settings[woof_stat][server_options] into the inline woof_tm_data script object on public filter pages. Limiting factors: no attacker authentication or user interaction is needed (PR:N/UI:N), but a site using the default configuration, WordPress's internal database, or without the Statistics/Turbo Mode features enabled is not exposed; impact is confined to sites that store external MySQL credentials in the plugin. |
| Impact | Signals mostly align toward a moderate, conditional risk. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, C:L/I:N/A:N, base 5.3) describes an unauthenticated, network-reachable, read-only information leak with no integrity or availability impact. No EPSS score, KEV listing, or public POC was provided in the input, so there is no evidence of active or at-scale exploitation (no public exploit identified at time of analysis). The tension here is between the modest base CVSS (C:L) and the actual sensitivity of the leaked data: the description states that plaintext external MySQL host, database name, username, and password are exposed to anonymous visitors, which is a total loss of confidentiality of a high-value secret and would, in my independent view, justify C:H rather than C:L. That is offset by a strong limiting factor - exploitation is only possible when an administrator has enabled the Statistics extension, saved external MySQL credentials, and turned on Turbo Mode simultaneously, a specific non-default combination - so the exposed population is a subset of installs rather than all of them. Net assessment: not a mass-exploitation emergency, but for any site matching the vulnerable configuration it is a genuine priority because it hands an unauthenticated attacker working database credentials with no effort. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated attacker browses to any public WooCommerce frontend page that renders the HUSKY products filter on a site where Statistics, external MySQL credentials, and Turbo Mode are all enabled. They view the page source and read the inline woof_tm_data script object, which contains woof_settings[woof_stat][server_options] with the external MySQL host, database name, username, and plaintext password. No public exploit code was identified in the provided data, but extraction requires only viewing page source, so it is trivial to perform. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 16, 2026
Sensitive information exposure in HUSKY - Products Filter for WooCommerce Professional through 1.4.5 allows unauthenticated attackers to extract the external MySQL host, database name, username, and plaintext password from the inline woof_tm_data script object on public frontend filter pages when the Statistics extension, saved external MySQL credentials, and Turbo Mode are all enabled. This is a moderate, conditional risk: default or internal-database configurations are not affected, and no public exploit was identified at time of analysis, but any site that has adopted those documented settings should treat the credentials as potentially exposed.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Until a fixed version is available, disable the Statistics extension and Turbo Mode in the HUSKY plugin settings; this removes the woof_tm_data output path but disables the associated statistics and turbo functionality. Remove any saved external MySQL connection credentials from woof_settings[woof_stat][server_options], or, if external statistics must continue, replace them with a dedicated least-privilege MySQL account and rotate the exposed credentials immediately because plaintext passwords may have been served on public pages. If the features cannot be disabled, restrict public frontend filter pages, search page output for woof_tm_data, and monitor or block scraping attempts; these controls are partial and may break legitimate filter behavior. See the Wordfence advisory https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/1186aca4-012b-4512-9ab3-166b9f84d725?source=cve and the Trac source references https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/woocommerce-products-filter/trunk/ext/turbo_mode/index.php#L93 and https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/woocommerce-products-filter/trunk/ext/stat/views/tabs_content.php#L292 for details.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected component is a WordPress plugin (CPE cpe:2.3:a:realmag777:husky_-_products_filter_for_woocommerce_professional:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) that provides WooCommerce product filtering, with extensions for Statistics and Turbo Mode. The root cause is CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor): when the Statistics extension is enabled, external MySQL connection credentials are saved in woof_settings[woof_stat][server_options], and when Turbo Mode is also enabled, the plugin emits that settings structure in the inline woof_tm_data script object on public filter pages. Source references point to the turbo mode extension (ext/turbo_mode/index.php around lines 93, 177, and 187) and the statistics view (ext/stat/views/tabs_content.php around line 292), indicating the credential-bearing option is unsafely rendered client-side. Because the script appears on public frontend pages, no authentication or user interaction is required to read it; the exposure is limited to sites that actively enable all three non-default conditions, but once those conditions are met the confidentiality impact for the exposed credentials is assessed as high.

DescriptionCVE.org
The HUSKY - Products Filter for WooCommerce Professional plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.5 via the 'woof_settings[woof_stat][server_options]' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract the external MySQL host, database name, username, and plaintext password stored in woof_settings[woof_stat][server_options] from the inline woof_tm_data script object on any public frontend filter page. This is only exploitable when an administrator has enabled the Statistics extension, saved external MySQL connection credentials, and enabled Turbo Mode - all supported, documented plugin configurations.
