CVE-2022-4971

The Sassy Social Share plugin before version 3.3.4 contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the 'urls' parameter of the 'heateor_sss_sharing_count' AJAX action. Due to inadequate sanitization of user input and lack of proper output escaping, attackers can inject malicious scripts that execute in a user's browser when they click a crafted link. Unauthenticated users can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary JavaScript within the affected page.
