Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: OSM – OpenStreetMap plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 6.1.0

Description: The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's osm map and osm map v3 shortcodes 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 up to, and including, 6.1.0, update to a version that addresses the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the osm map and osm map v3 shortcodes until a patch is available.
