Description

The Store Locator WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting 'category_name', 'description', 'description_2' and other form parameters in versions up to, and including, 1.4.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with editor-level access, and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
