Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions MapPress Maps for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.88.16

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the width and height parameters due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.88.16, consider disabling the width and height parameters until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to pages that may have been injected with malicious scripts to minimize the risk of execution. Update to a version that includes the necessary input sanitization and output escaping fixes to fully resolve the issue.
