Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2022-4451 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Social Sharing Plugin. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4451/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4451/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-4451","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4451/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-4451","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p6cx-v2j5-9938"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Contributors can inject malicious scripts via shortcode attributes, potentially compromising admin accounts in Sassy Social Share.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"sassy_social_share","vendor":"heateor"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The Social Sharing WordPress plugin before 3.3.45 does not validate and escape some of its shortcode attributes before outputting them back in the page, which could allow users with a role as low as contributor to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks which could be used against high privilege users such as admins.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Sassy Social Share \u003c 3.3.45 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2022-4451","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Chrome","id":"CVE-2022-4452"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Double free after calling PEM_read_bio_ex","id":"CVE-2022-4450"},"products":["Social Sharing Plugin"],"published":"2023-01-16","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Sassy Social Share 3.3.23 PHP Object Injection","id":"CVE-2021-39321","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-21"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Social Sharing Plugin – Sassy Social Share","id":"CVE-2024-1989","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-06"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Sassy Social Share \u003c= 3.3.56 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2024-1448","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-20"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Social Sharing Plugin – Sassy Social Share","id":"CVE-2025-5528","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-07"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Social Sharing Plugin – Sassy Social Share","id":"CVE-2024-11252","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-30"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Sassy Social Share \u003c= 3.3.3 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-4971","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-16"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Sassy social share \u003c 3.3.63 Admin+ Stored Cross-Site scripting","id":"CVE-2024-4924","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-12"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-04","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Contributors can inject malicious scripts via shortcode attributes, potentially compromising admin accounts in Sassy Social Share.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4451/"}
