Description

The Easy Google Maps plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.11.7. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the AJAX action handler. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to executes AJAX actions via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. CVE-2024-31269 appears to be a duplicate of this issue.
