CVE-2025-4047

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Broken Link Checker plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.4.4

Description The issue is related to unauthorized data access due to a missing capability check on the ajax full status and ajax dashboard status functions. This allows authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access and above to view the plugin's status.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.4.4, update to a version that includes a fix for the missing capability check on the ajax full status and ajax dashboard status functions. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the ajax full status and ajax dashboard status functions to minimize the risk of exploitation.
