WordPress 的 GeoDirectory – WP 商业目录插件及分类广告列表目录插件存在存储型跨站脚本（Stored Cross-Site Scripting, XSS）漏洞。该漏洞存在于所有版本直至包括 2.8.181 在内，原因是插件对文本类型的自定义字段（例如“电话”字段）缺乏充分的输入清洗和输出转义。这使得具备订阅者及以上权限的认证攻击者能够在页面上注入任意 Web 脚本，当其他用户访问被注入脚本的页面时，这些恶意脚本便会执行。 攻击者需通过 AJAX 接口 ，将恶意载荷存储在文本类型的自定义字段

Vulnerability Title
GeoDirectory <= 2.8.181 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Text-type Custom Field (e.g., 'phone')
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
The GeoDirectory – WP Business Directory Plugin and Classified Listings Directory plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Text-type Custom Field (e.g., 'phone') in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.181 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The payload must be stored in a text-type custom field (such as a phone field) via the AJAX geodir_save_post endpoint, using entity-encoded angle brackets (e.g., &lt;img src=x onerror=alert(1)&gt;) to bypass the strpos()-gated tag-stripping check.
