Descriptions
The Easy Affiliate Links WordPress plugin before 3.7.1 does not validate and escape some of its block options before outputting them back in a page/post where the block is embedded, which could allow users with the contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.
The Easy Affiliate Links plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's block settings in versions up to, and including, 3.7.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied settings. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page
