Summary

The My Geo Posts Free plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'mygeo_city' shortcode in all versions up to and including 1.2. This is due to the plugin not properly sanitizing user input or escaping output of the 'default' shortcode attribute. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages that execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Risk Assessment

An attacker with contributor privileges can inject malicious scripts that execute in visitors' browsers, potentially leading to session theft or actions on behalf of users.

Recommendation

Update the My Geo Posts Free plugin to a version later than 1.2 once a fix is available, and restrict contributor privileges.
