Input validation vulnerability in WhatsApp Share Button 1.0.1

The WhatsApp Share Button plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a type of attack called Stored Cross-Site Scripting. In this attack, an attacker with contributor-level or higher permissions can put malicious code into webpages that will run any time a user visits the page. The vulnerability affects all versions of the plugin up to and including version 1.0.1 and is caused by a lack of protection against malicious code in the plugin’s “whatsapp” shortcode.
