AI-suggested

Users should avoid configuring a Google Maps API key in Church Admin settings until a fix is released, as this setting enables the vulnerable code path. Monitor the vendor's channels for updates and apply any official patches once available. Until then, restricting or disabling the affected functionality is the recommended mitigation.

Description

The Church Admin WordPress plugin up to version 5.1.7 is vulnerable to a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw via the 'lat' parameter. This vulnerability arises from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts. Exploitation requires that a Google Maps API key be configured in the plugin settings, as the vulnerable code path is only triggered in this scenario.
