What is CVE-2026-113490?

A serious flaw in the GeoDirectory plugin for WordPress allows unauthenticated users to access confidential listing information. Specifically, the plugin fails to verify ownership or status when displaying map popups via its single-item REST routes. This oversight permits unauthorized individuals to retrieve sensitive details, including titles, permalinks, and card fields of listings that should remain private, such as drafts and pending content. Users utilizing versions before 2.8.194 are particularly at risk, making it essential for website owners to address this vulnerability promptly.

Affected Version(s)

GeoDirectory 0 < 2.8.194

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
