Summary

The Social Media Share Buttons & Social Sharing Icons WordPress plugin before 3.0.1 does not properly escape a value taken from the incoming request before outputting it in an inline JavaScript event handler, leading to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting. Exploitation requires the plugin to be running a non-default icon display configuration.

Risk Assessment

A user can be tricked into clicking a malicious link, allowing the attacker to execute script in the victim's browser context, potentially leading to session or data theft.

Recommendation

Update the Social Media Share Buttons & Social Sharing Icons plugin to version 3.0.1 or later. Ensure the icon display configuration is set to default if possible.
