Input validation vulnerability in wp-noexternallinks 3.5.16

  • Severity: high-risk
  • Status: Open
  • Publication: July 14, 2016

The WP No External Links plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a type of cyber attack called Reflected Cross-Site Scripting. This type of attack can occur in versions of the plugin before 3.5.16, as it does not have enough safeguards in place to protect user data. This means that unauthorised users could inject malicious web scripts into pages, which would be executed if a user clicks on a link.
