Researcher Marcin Probola

Description

The My Link Order plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting via the 'cats' & 'hdnCatID' parameters in versions up to, and including, 4.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This can be exploited via Cross-Site Request Forgery.
