Description
ClipBucket v5 before 5.5.3-#182 has a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the sort_link() helper function. This flaw occurs because the cat, sort, and time query parameters are not properly sanitized, allowing attackers to inject malicious JavaScript payloads. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary script execution in users' browsers within the context of the affected application.
