CVE-2026-7330Network attack vector

Unauthenticated stored XSS via unescaped statistics URL

Published May 8, 2026 · Updated May 8, 2026

Stored XSS in Lucian Apostol's Auto Affiliate Links 6.8.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to run scripts in an administrator's browser. aal_url_stats_save_action() stores an insufficiently sanitized url parameter, and aal_display_clicks() emits that value into anchor text and its href attribute without output escaping. An exposed nonce and unauthenticated AJAX hook permit injection, but execution occurs when an administrator opens the statistics page.
