Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Social Share Buttons for WordPress versions 2.7 and earlier
Description
The issue allows high privilege users, such as admins, to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed, for example, in a multisite setup. This is due to the plugin not sanitizing and escaping some of its settings.
Recommendations
Social Share Buttons for WordPress versions 2.7 and earlier: Update the plugin to a version that sanitizes and escapes its settings to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.
