AI-suggested
Until an official fix is available, avoid using untrusted input in the sld_no_results_found option or apply manual encoding to neutralize quotes before insertion into JavaScript contexts.
Description
Simple Link Directory through 9.0.4 interpolates the sld_no_results_found option into a JavaScript string literal without encoding. Because sanitize_text_field leaves quotes intact, a stored payload breaks out of the string and runs script for every page visitor.
