The acx_asmw_saveorder_callback function in function.php in the acurax-social-media-widget plugin before 3.2.6 for WordPress has CSRF via the recordsArray parameter to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php, with resultant social_widget_icon_array_order XSS.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.65%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
