MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
WP GuestMap plugin version 1.8 and earlier
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vulnerable parameters in several PHP files. Specifically, the parameters
zl, mt, and dc in "guest-locator.php", "online-tracker.php", "stats-map.php", and the parameters zl, mt, activate, and dc in "online-tracker.php" and "weather-map.php" are affected. This can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.Recommendations
For WP GuestMap plugin version 1.8 and earlier, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the parameters
zl, mt, dc, and activate in the affected PHP files until a patch is available. Avoid using these parameters in the "guest-locator.php", "online-tracker.php", "stats-map.php", and "weather-map.php" files until the issue is resolved. Found an issue in the description?
