Easy Social Icons 4.0.3Latest
- Security: fixed stored XSS via SVG uploads. SVG is now accepted only from users with the unfiltered_html capability, and every SVG is parsed and rejected if it contains scripts, event handlers or other active content. The check also runs when another plugin enables SVG uploads.
- Security: fixed stored XSS via the icon colour settings. Colours are validated when saved and again when output, and escaped in the inline stylesheet and style attributes.
- Security: icon titles, URLs and widget values are escaped on output; capability and nonce checks added to the save, delete and reorder actions; all settings are validated.
- New: updated to Font Awesome Free 7.3.1.
- New: added 24 new brand icons to the icon picker, including Fediverse, Ko-fi, Substack, Venmo, YouTube Shorts, Matrix, Mattermost, Zulip, Codeberg, Hugging Face and Obsidian.
- New: updated admin and front-end CSS styling; premium promotion styles moved to the admin stylesheet so they are no longer loaded on the front end.
- Fix: the “Open in” setting (same or new window) is now preselected correctly when editing an icon.
- Fix: uploaded image icons are now sized to the same box as Font Awesome icons, so mixed icon sets line up.
- Fix: Font Awesome icons are now centered inside their box at any icon size, including small sizes such as 16px.
- Fix: links that open in a new window now include rel=”noopener noreferrer”.
- Fix: schema.org profile links are output as safe JSON.
- Improvement: scripts and styles load only where they are needed, the icon list is cached per request, and unused code was removed.
- Improvement: added translation text domain, plugin license headers and a Settings link on the Plugins screen.
- Refactor: the 2,000-line main file was split into focused files under includes/ (helpers, icons, SVG security, assets, settings, admin actions, admin pages, front end and widget). No behavior change.
- Removed: the plugin rollback feature.
- Tested up to WordPress 7.1.3.
