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 Go Maps WordPress plugin before 10.0.10 does not properly enforce the marker approval filter on the admin-ajax fallback for its datatables route, allowing unauthenticated visitors to retrieve marker records that the site owner has not approved for public display, including their title, category, address and description fields.

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 Go Maps plugin before version 10.0.10 fails to enforce its marker approval filter on the admin-ajax.php fallback endpoint used by its datatables route. This allows any unauthenticated visitor to query this endpoint and retrieve marker records that have not been approved for public display, exposing sensitive fields including title, category, address, and description.

MitigationUpdate WP Go Maps to version 10.0.10 or later, which implements proper authorization checks on the admin-ajax datatables route to ensure only approved markers are returned to unauthenticated users.

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 WP Go Maps plugin is installed
    Access your WordPress admin panel, navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins, and locate WP Go Maps (also known as Agm Maps or Go Maps) in the list.
    Affected if The plugin is installed and active in WordPress.
  2. Check installed WP Go Maps version
    In the WordPress admin under Plugins > Installed Plugins, find the WP Go Maps plugin and note the version number displayed below the plugin name. Alternatively, check the version in the plugin's main PHP file header.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 10.0.10.
  3. Test admin-ajax endpoint accessibility
    Using a web browser or curl tool, send a GET request to your site's /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=agm_map_builder_marker&columns=title,category,address,description (or similar datatables request pattern for markers) without logging in.
    Affected if The endpoint responds with marker data without requiring authentication.
  4. Identify unapproved marker records
    Log into WordPress admin and navigate to the WP Go Maps marker management area. Check if there are markers with status 'pending', 'draft', or 'awaiting approval'.
    Affected if There are markers in a non-public approval state in the database.

Your environment is affected if WP Go Maps plugin version is below 10.0.10 AND the admin-ajax endpoint is accessible without authentication AND unapproved markers exist in the system.
