Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Link Library plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 7.6

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ll reciprocal parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 7.6, update to a version that includes the necessary input sanitization and output escaping fixes to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the ll reciprocal parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
