 * 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](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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.

 * Hi [@jkohlbach](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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.
