CVSS Score

6.4 / 10

Product(s) Impacted

Simple Shortcode for Google Maps plugin for WordPress

  • up to 1.5.4

Description

The Simple Shortcode for Google Maps plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's pw_map shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Weaknesses

CWE-80
Improper Neutralization of Script-Related HTML Tags in a Web Page (Basic XSS)

The product receives input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special characters such as "<", ">", and "&" that could be interpreted as web-scripting elements when they are sent to a downstream component that processes web pages.
