AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
The vulnerability in the Mapster WP Maps plugin for WordPress is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue. It occurs because the plugin does not properly sanitize input or escape output in multiple fields. This allows authenticated users with contributor-level permissions or higher to inject malicious scripts into pages. These scripts then execute whenever any user views the affected page.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can allow attackers with contributor-level access to inject malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of users who visit the infected pages. This can lead to theft of user credentials, session hijacking, defacement, or other malicious actions performed on behalf of the user without their consent.
