Summary

The WP MAPS PRO WordPress plugin before version 6.1.1 registers an unauthenticated AJAX action which, given a valid nonce that is publicly emitted on any frontend page enqueuing its map script, unconditionally creates an administrator account and returns a magic-login URL granting interactive admin access.

Risk Assessment

Any unauthenticated user can gain full administrative access to WordPress, leading to complete site takeover.

Recommendation

Immediately update the WP MAPS PRO plugin to version 6.1.1 or later.
