Description
The GeoDirectory plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'html' attribute of the gd_dynamic_content shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.200. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of the attribute and of the HTML built from %%variable%% replacement with listing field values. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
