AI-suggested
Administrators should review plugin usage on multi-site WordPress installations and consider restricting administrator access or disabling the Link Hopper plugin until a fix is released. Monitor the vendor's advisory channels for updates. Since this vulnerability requires administrator privileges and specific configuration (multi-site with unfiltered_html disabled), limiting administrative access and carefully controlling plugin installations can reduce risk.
Description
The Link Hopper plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘hop_name’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.
