Technical details

The WP Maps plugin (formerly WP Google Map Plugin) for WordPress is vulnerable to a sensitive data exposure flaw (CWE-201) in versions up to and including 4.9.6. The vulnerability arises when the application includes sensitive information in data sent to the client-side, which can then be retrieved by an attacker. Exploitation requires 'Subscriber' level authentication or higher. An attacker can leverage this to access embedded sensitive data that is not intended for public or low-privileged viewing. The issue is addressed in version 4.9.7.
