CVE-2024-13404Network attack vector

Script execution via unescaped search parameter

Published Jan 21, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026

Reflected XSS in Yannick Lefebvre Link Library 7.7.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute script via the searchll parameter. The plugin places the untrusted searchll value into generated search-page output without sufficient sanitization or context-appropriate escaping. No authentication is required, but a user must follow a crafted link; the resulting script runs in that user's browser under the affected site's origin.
