What is CVE-2019-9576?

The Blog2Social plugin for WordPress, prior to version 5.0.3, is susceptible to a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This issue arises when the wp-admin/admin.php?page=blog2social-ship endpoint fails to properly sanitize user input. As a result, an attacker could exploit this flaw to execute arbitrary JavaScript code within the context of the victim's browser, potentially leading to unauthorized actions and data theft. Users are advised to update to the latest version of the plugin to mitigate the risk.
