Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP Maps versions prior to 4.9.7
Description An issue exists where the plugin fails to perform a capability check in an AJAX action and does not restrict the dispatched operation. This allows users with a Subscriber account to trigger uncontrolled recursion, which exhausts server resources and leads to a Denial of Service (DoS), a condition where a service is unavailable to its intended users.
Recommendations Update WP Maps to version 4.9.7 or later.
