CVE-2025-0804: ClickWhale – Link Manager, Link Shortener and Click Tracker for Affiliate Links & Link Pages <= 2.4.1 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting

First published: Wed Jan 29 2025(Updated: )

The ClickWhale – Link Manager, Link Shortener and Click Tracker for Affiliate Links & Link Pages plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via link titles in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
