WordPress · Broken Link Checker · CVE-2022-3922
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Broken Link Checker WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.11.20
**Description**
The issue allows high privilege users, such as admins, to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed, for example, in a multisite setup. This is due to the plugin not sanitizing and escaping some of its settings.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 1.11.20, update to version 1.11.20 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the settings that are not properly sanitized and escaped to minimize the risk of exploitation.
