CVE-2026-9125

The Presto Player plugin for WordPress contains a security flaw in its handling of the link_url parameter within the [presto_player_overlay] shortcode. Specifically, the getOverlays function fails to properly validate and sanitize the input from this parameter, allowing malicious scripts to be embedded in pages. As a result, authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher can inject arbitrary web content that will execute when accessed by other users.
