Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2014-9311 is an authenticated cross-site scripting issue in the WordPress Shareaholic plugin before 7.6.1.0. A logged-in attacker could inject script or HTML through a Shareaholic AJAX action. The business risk is mainly compromise of admin browser sessions or site-management workflows where vulnerable plugin versions remain installed. Exposure is limited to WordPress installations with Shareaholic plugin versions earlier than 7.6.1.0 and an attacker with authenticated access. The bundle does not identify affected roles, CPEs, or current plugin prevalence. Prioritize remediation for public WordPress sites that allow multiple user accounts or delegated content administration. This is not supported as actively exploited in the bundle, but public disclosure and XSS impact make lingering vulnerable installations worth closing promptly. Mitigation focus: Inventory WordPress sites for the Shareaholic plugin and installed version.; Upgrade Shareaholic to 7.6.1.0 or later where applicable.; If upgrade is unavailable, check current vendor guidance before applying compensating controls..
