CVE-2026-53741

Simple Link Directory through 9.0.4 interpolates the sld_no_results_found option into a JavaScript string literal without encoding.

MEDIUM 5.1EPSS 0.14%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.14%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

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.
