Summary

The GeoDirectory WordPress plugin before 2.8.194 does not sanitise and escape some of its map shortcode attributes before outputting them within a style attribute. This allows users with the Contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks that execute in the context of any user viewing the affected content.

Risk Assessment

Stored XSS attacks can lead to session theft, compromise of privileged user accounts, and further privilege escalation within the site.

Recommendation

Update the GeoDirectory plugin to version 2.8.194 or later, which includes the sanitisation and escaping fix for map shortcode attributes.
