Description

The Broken Link Checker plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized data access due to a missing capability check on the ajax_full_status and ajax_dashboard_status functions in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.4. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to view the plugin's status.
