## Description

The Wp Social Login and Register Social Counter plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery via the social counter and social share provider settings forms in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.3, due to missing nonce validation in the content_xs_counter_providers and content_xs_share_provider save handlers. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the plugin's counter provider (xs_counter) and share provider (xs_share) settings via a forged request, granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
