 "title": "GeoDirectory <= 2.8.196 - Unauthenticated Sensitive Information Exposure of Password-Protected Listings via REST API",
 "description": "The GeoDirectory plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the REST API posts endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.196 due to the endpoint not checking whether a listing is password protected before returning its data. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve custom field values (such as address, latitude and longitude), ratings, featured image and gallery images of password-protected listings without supplying the password.",
