Description

The Feed Them Social plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘access_token’ parameter in the function fts_refresh_token_ajax in versions up to, and including, 2.9.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts stored in the plugin options granted they can trick a site's administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
