CVE-2026-3349: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in minhnhut MinhNhut Link Gateway
The MinhNhut Link Gateway plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'url' parameter on the redirect page in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The MinhNhut Link Gateway plugin for WordPress suffers from a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) due to improper neutralization of input in the 'url' parameter on its redirect page. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when a user interacts with a maliciously crafted link. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 3.6.1. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.1, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, scope changed, and low impact on confidentiality and integrity. No patch or official remediation has been published by the vendor as of the provided data.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation can lead to execution of arbitrary scripts in the context of the affected website, potentially allowing attackers to steal user credentials, perform actions on behalf of the user, or conduct phishing attacks. The impact is limited to confidentiality and integrity with no availability impact. The vulnerability requires user interaction and does not require authentication.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, users should consider disabling or removing the MinhNhut Link Gateway plugin or implementing web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block malicious payloads targeting the 'url' parameter. Users should also educate users to avoid clicking suspicious links that may exploit this vulnerability.
