## Summary

Joinchat, a WordPress "click to chat" plugin, has a reflected cross-site scripting flaw in its handling of the {HREF} dynamic variable. An unauthenticated attacker can reach it remotely by tricking a user into clicking a crafted link, which then runs injected scripts in the affected page, but only if an administrator has set a phone number and used {HREF} in the call-to-action text.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- creapuntome Joinchat – Enhanced “click to chat”: through 6.3.1

## Description

The Joinchat – Enhanced "click to chat" plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via '{HREF}' Dynamic Variable via Query Parameter Name in all versions up to, and including, 6.3.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. Exploitation requires that an administrator has configured a telephone number and included the {HREF} dynamic variable in the Call-to-Action text.

CISA KEV: CVE-2026-15785 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-15785 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.

How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.
