LinkAce is a self-hosted archive to collect website links. Prior to 2.5.6, LinkAce contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows a low-privilege user to execute arbitrary JavaScript in an administrator's browser session. This affects instances configured with SSO/OAuth authentication, which is one of the supported authentication methods in LinkAce. An attacker who sets their OAuth display name to a malicious script and then creates an API token will plant a persistent XSS payload in the audit log. When any admin navigates to /system/audit, the payload executes in the admin's browser context. This enables session cookie theft, CSRF token exfiltration (exposed in the la-app-data meta tag), or any other action the admin can perform. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.5.6.
No affected version ranges are stored yet. Use the vendor advisory before you decide this record does not apply.
