Other vulnerabilities in GEO my WP
See all- CVE-2026-15300Critical
The GEO my WP plugin for WordPress up to version 4.5.4 is vulnerable to SQL injection via the 'distance', 'lat', and 'lng' parameters. Values are read from $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] via parse_str() (bypassing wp_magic_quotes) and passed through esc_sql() into numeric context in the proximity-search query, allowing injection.
- CVE-2026-85200High
The GEO my WP plugin for WordPress in all versions up to and including 4.5.5.3 is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion via the gmw_posts_locator_ajax_info_window_loader function. This enables unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary .php files on the server, allowing execution of any PHP code in those files, bypassing access controls, obtaining sensitive data, or achieving code execution. In environments where PEAR is installed with register_argc_argv enabled, this file inclusion can be leveraged to write and execute arbitrary PHP code, achieving full remote code execution.
- CVE-2026-9757High
The GEO my WP plugin for WordPress up to version 4.5.5 contains an SQL injection vulnerability via the 'swlatlng' and 'nelatlng' parameters, allowing unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries and extract sensitive data.
