Vulnerability CVE-2024-3198


Published: 2024-05-22

Description:
The WP Font Awesome Share Icons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's
'wpfai_social' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
