Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to István Márton.
The Google Maps CP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the feedback_action function called via the cp-google-maps-feedback action in versions up to, and including, 1.0.43. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to perform an unauthorized feedback form submission.
