Technical details
The MapPress Maps for WordPress plugin (versions <= 2.97.6) suffers from an unauthenticated sensitive data exposure vulnerability (CWE-497). The flaw allows a remote attacker to access sensitive system information without any prior authentication or user interaction. This is likely due to improper access controls on specific plugin components or debug outputs. Attackers can leverage this information to gain insights into the server environment or application structure, potentially facilitating further exploitation. The issue is resolved in version 2.97.7.
