Authenticated script execution in visitors' browsers
Published Nov 18, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
DOM-based cross-site scripting in the Linear WordPress plugin 2.8.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute script in visitors' browsers. Patchstack has not published the affected client-side code path or the unsafe DOM operation that processes attacker-controlled input. Exploitation requires low-privileged access and user interaction; executed script can read or modify data available to the victim's page context.
