CVE-2026-5062 Details
Description
The PrettyLinks – Affiliate Links, Link Branding, Link Tracking, Marketing and Stripe Payments Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 's' (search) parameter on the Pretty Links listing page in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.20. This is due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query in the `search_links_table()` function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in the Pretty Links WordPress plugin, specifically in versions through 3.6.20. The issue arises in the 'search' parameter on the Pretty Links listing page, where insufficient escaping of user-supplied data allows authenticated attackers with Administrator-level access to inject additional SQL queries. This exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information within the database.
Users are advised to update the Pretty Links WordPress plugin to version 3.6.21 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
