CVE-2026-119113
The GeoDirectory – WP Business Directory Plugin and Classified Listings Directory plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the listing description (postcontent) in versions up to, and including, 2.8.199 This is due to insufficient input sanitization on save (the bundled geodirksessafeembedattributes() helper only neutralises data-embed-url, data-src and data-embed, while WordPress core wpksespost permits data- attributes on standard HTML tags) combined with the AyeCode UI library initializing every [data-bs-toggle="popover-html"] element with { html: true, sanitize: false }, which inserts the attacker-controlled data-bs-content value into the popover body as HTML at render time. 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.
