• Severity: medium (CVSS 6.1 v3.1)
• Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
• EPSS: 0.8% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
• Public exploit or detection template: yes
• Published: 2024-07-24 · updated 2026-06-17
• Weakness: CWE-79

Description

The Social Auto Poster plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘mapTypes’ parameter in the 'wpw_auto_poster_map_wordpress_post_type' AJAX function in all versions up to, and including, 5.3.14 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Affected products

• WPWeb Social Auto Poster: before 5.3.15 — fixed in 5.3.15

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: WPWeb Social Auto Poster 5.3.15. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
