Summary

The Widget for Social Page Feeds plugin for WordPress, prior to version 6.4.2, lacks proper sanitization and escaping of certain settings. This security oversight permits users with elevated privileges, including administrators, to execute Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. Even in restricted environments such as multisite setups where the 'unfiltered_html' capability is disabled, these vulnerabilities can lead to unauthorized script execution and potential data compromise.

Affected Version(s)

Widget for Social Page Feeds 0 < 6.4.2

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
