CVE-2023-6878
The Slick Social Share Buttons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'dcssb_ajax_update' function in versions up to, and including, 2.4.11.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.49%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
