Descriptions

The Locatoraid Store Locator WordPress plugin before 3.9.24 does not sanitise and escape the lpr-search parameter before outputting it back in the page, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting which could be used against high privilege users such as admin.

El complemento de WordPress Locatoraid Store Locator anterior a 3.9.24 no sanitiza y escapa del parámetro lpr-search antes de devolverlo a la página, lo que genera un cross site scripnting reflejado que podría usarse contra usuarios con privilegios elevados, como el administrador.

The Locatoraid Store Locator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'lpr-search' parameter in versions up to, and including, 3.9.23 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.
