Summary
The Nextend Social Login and Register plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a self-based Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘error_description’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.12 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers, with access to a subscriber-level account, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. NOTE: This vulnerability can be successfully exploited on a vulnerable WordPress instance against an OAuth pre-authenticated higher-level user (e.g., administrator) by leveraging a cross-site request forgery in conjunction with a certain social engineering technique to achieve a critical impact scenario (cross-site scripting to administrator-level account creation). However, successful exploitation requires "Debug mode" to be enabled in the plugin's "Global Settings".

"value": "El complemento de inicio de sesi\u00f3n y registro social de Nextend para WordPress es vulnerable a Cross-Site Scripting Reflejado a trav\u00e9s del par\u00e1metro \u0027error_description\u0027 en todas las versiones hasta la 3.1.12 incluida debido a una sanitizaci\u00f3n de entrada y un escape de salida insuficientes. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados, con acceso a una cuenta de nivel de suscriptor, inyecten scripts web arbitrarios en p\u00e1ginas que se ejecutan si pueden enga\u00f1ar con \u00e9xito a un usuario para que realice una acci\u00f3n como hacer clic en un enlace. NOTA: Esta vulnerabilidad se puede explotar con \u00e9xito en una instancia vulnerable de WordPress contra un usuario de nivel superior autenticado previamente con OAuth (por ejemplo, administrador) aprovechando Cross-Site Scripting junto con una determinada t\u00e9cnica de ingenier\u00eda social para lograr un escenario de impacto cr\u00edtico. (Cross-Site Scripting para la creaci\u00f3n de cuentas a nivel de administrador). Sin embargo, una explotaci\u00f3n exitosa requiere que el \"modo de depuraci\u00f3n\" est\u00e9 habilitado en la \"Configuraci\u00f3n global\" del complemento."
