El plugin social-login-bws antes de la versión 0.2 para WordPress tiene múltiples problemas XSS.

The Social Login by BestWebSoft plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 0.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the 'category' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute in a victim's browser.
