Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions BMLT Tabbed Map plugin for WordPress versions 1.1.8 and earlier

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'bmlt tabbed map' shortcode due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. This allows 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.

Recommendations For versions 1.1.8 and earlier, update to a version later than 1.1.8 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the 'bmlt tabbed map' shortcode to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, restrict contributor-level access and above to prevent authenticated attackers from injecting arbitrary web scripts.
