Description (CNA)
The GeoDirectory – WP Business Directory Plugin and Classified Listings Directory plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Text-type Custom Field (e.g., 'phone') in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.181 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The payload must be stored in a text-type custom field (such as a phone field) via the AJAX geodir_save_post endpoint, using entity-encoded angle brackets (e.g., <img src=x onerror=alert(1)>) to bypass the strpos()-gated tag-stripping check.
