Description
Blogroll Fun plugin for WordPress before 0.8.5 contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to inject scripts through the 'k' parameter in blogroll.php.

Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2023-10-19.
