Descriptions

The Store Locator WordPress plugin before 1.4.13 does not sanitise and escape an invalid nonce before outputting it back in an AJAX response, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting which could be used against high privilege users such as admin

El plugin Store Locator para WordPress anterior a la versión 1.4.13 no sanitiza ni escapa un nonce inválido antes de devolverlo en una respuesta AJAX, lo que da lugar a un Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) reflejado que podría utilizarse contra usuarios con privilegios elevados, como los administradores.

The Store Locator WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘asl-nounce’ parameter in versions up to, and including, 1.4.12 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
