Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The WP Google Maps Integration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the `page` parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.2. This is 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 an administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The WP Google Maps Integration plugin for WordPress versions up to 1.2 contains a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability due to insufficient input sanitization of the `page` parameter and inadequate output escaping. Unauthenticated attackers can inject arbitrary JavaScript through a maliciously crafted URL that, when clicked by an authenticated administrator, executes in the context of the admin session.

MitigationUpdate the WP Google Maps Integration plugin to the latest version once available. Until then, implement a Web Application Firewall (WAF) rule to block requests with suspicious patterns in the `page` parameter and educate administrators about not clicking untrusted links.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify plugin installation and version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and locate 'WP Google Maps Integration'. Check the version number displayed below the plugin name, or inspect the plugin header in /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
    Affected if Installed version is 1.2 or lower (the vulnerable version range is 'up to 1.2')
  2. Confirm admin access is available
    The vulnerability requires an authenticated administrator to click a malicious URL. Verify that administrator accounts exist and can access the WordPress admin dashboard.
    Affected if At least one administrator account is active and able to log in to the WordPress admin area
  3. Test for reflected XSS in page parameter
    While authenticated as administrator, inspect URLs in the WP Google Maps plugin admin pages. Look for any usage of a 'page' parameter in the URL query string. Craft a test URL with a benign payload like ?page=test"><script>alert(1)</script> and observe if it reflects unescaped in the response.
    Affected if The 'page' parameter value reflects in the HTML output without proper sanitization or escaping

You are affected if the WP Google Maps Integration plugin is installed at version 1.2 or lower AND an administrator can be tricked into clicking a maliciously crafted URL containing the vulnerable 'page' parameter.
