The Bello - Directory & Listing WordPress theme before 1.6.0 did not properly sanitise and escape its listing_list_view, bt_bb_listing_field_my_lat, bt_bb_listing_field_my_lng, bt_bb_listing_field_distance_value, bt_bb_listing_field_my_lat_default, bt_bb_listing_field_keyword, bt_bb_listing_field_location_autocomplete, bt_bb_listing_field_price_range_from and bt_bb_listing_field_price_range_to parameters in its listing page, leading to reflected Cross-Site Scripting issues.
