The Hippoo Mobile App for WooCommerce is a WordPress plugin that enables mobile commerce features.

## Technical details

The plugin contains a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the REST API handler due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of the token_id parameter. Although a URL path regex attempts to constrain input, WP_REST_Request's query-string parameter precedence allows attackers to override the path constraint via a ?token_id= query parameter, bypassing the regex validation entirely and passing unsanitized input to the handler.
