Recommendation: Monitor — no exploitation signal at the moment.

The Hide Links plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized shortcode execution due to do_shortcode being hooked through the comment_text filter in all versions up to and including 1.4.2. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes available on the target site.
