WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
WP Go Maps (formerly WP Google Maps) < 10.0.05 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Map Engine Setting Modification
Description
The WP Go Maps (formerly WP Google Maps) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the processBackgroundAction() function in all versions up to, and including, 10.0.04. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify global map engine settings.
