Weird XSS message

NoScript 5.1.8.4rc2
Waterfox 56.0.3 (also reproducible in Firefox 56.0.2 new profile, but the user-facing XSS notification doesn't display there)

URL: https://www.worldstarhiphop.com/videos/ ... 92TlQ27a6W

Scripts are blocked and I'm seeing this -

Code: Select all

[NoScript XSS] Sanitized suspicious request. Original URL [https://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.worldstarhiphop.com%2Fvideos%2Fvideo.php%3Fv%3DwshhOG51c292TlQ27a6W&layout=button_count&show_faces=false&width=95&action=like&font=verdana&colorscheme=dark&height=20] requested from [https://www.worldstarhiphop.com/videos/video.php?v=wshhOG51c292TlQ27a6W]. Sanitized URL: [https://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.worldstarhiphop.com%2Fvideos%2Fvideo.php%3Fv%3DwshhOG51c292TlQ20a6W%23666806849024151223&layout=button_count&show_faces=false&width=95&action=like&font=verdana&colorscheme=dark&height=20#8504582049936382189].
Comparing the URLs in Meld highlights it like this -

Why does it think the number 7 is an XSS attack? Image

That warning maybe a NoScript 10 bug. It's not related to the one I'm asking about.
