Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions CM Business Directory versions prior to 1.5.8

Description Insufficient input sanitization and output escaping allow authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting. This occurs when arbitrary web scripts are injected into pages via business address meta fields, which then execute when a user accesses the affected page. Because the payload is stored in post meta instead of post content, the WordPress unfiltered html capability restriction is bypassed. The affected variables include cmbd address, cmbd cityTown, cmbd stateCounty, cmbd postalcode, cmbd region, and cmbd country.

Recommendations Update to a version newer than 1.5.7. Restrict the use of the cmbd address, cmbd cityTown, cmbd stateCounty, cmbd postalcode, cmbd region, and cmbd country fields to trusted users only.
