Summary

The WP Maps WordPress plugin before 4.9.7 does not perform a capability check in one of its AJAX actions and does not restrict the operation it dispatches, allowing users with a Subscriber account to trigger uncontrolled recursion that exhausts server resources, resulting in a Denial of Service.

Does this affect you?

Add your gear to cvedb and we'll alert you only when a vendor you run ships something exploited.
