- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2022-07-11 · Updated: 2024-08-03

## Affected

- Unknown Sharebar: 1.4.1 only

## Description

The Sharebar WordPress plugin through 1.4.1 does not have CSRF check in place when updating its settings, which could allow attackers to make a logged in admin change them via a CSRF attack and also lead to Stored Cross-Site Scripting issue due to the lack of sanitisation and escaping in some of them
