Low risk2th percentile - higher than 2% of all known CVEs
Summary
The WP-Ultimate-Map plugin for WordPress in versions up to and including 1.1 is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery. Missing nonce validation on process_init() allows unauthenticated attackers to change plugin settings (zoom-level, focus-lat, focus-lng, sel_places, sel_routes) and inject arbitrary web scripts via a forged request, provided they trick an admin into clicking a link. Additionally, the zoom-level value is stored unsanitized and later echoed into an HTML attribute and inline JavaScript without escaping.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could change map settings and inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to data theft or admin session hijacking.
Recommendation
Update the WP-Ultimate-Map plugin to the latest patched version.

- CVE-2026-124494Critical
SunEditor before 3.4.0 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability because the html.clean() sanitizer's _normalizeURL() function decodes named entities like : to an empty string. Attackers can inject href values such as javascript: that pass the _isSafeURL() check but are decoded by browsers, executing JavaScript when victims click stored links.
- CVE-2026-124493Critical
SunEditor before 3.4.0 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the DocumentType constructor that injects header textContent into innerHTML without HTML escaping. Attackers can store entity-encoded HTML in h1-h6 headers that executes JavaScript when editors using document:header mode initialize, enabling session cookie theft.
Original NVD description (English source)
The WP-Ultimate-Map plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.1. This is due to missing nonce validation on the process_init() function hooked to admin_init, which saves plugin settings (zoom-level, focus-lat, focus-lng, sel_places, sel_routes) via update_option() based solely on the presence of a save-setting POST parameter. Additionally, the saved values — particularly zoom-level — are stored without sanitization and later echoed into an HTML attribute (and inline JavaScript) on the settings page without escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change plugin settings and inject arbitrary web scripts via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
