The GeoDirectory WordPress plugin before 2.8.196 does not properly escape a post badge shortcode attribute for a JavaScript context before placing it in an inline event handler, allowing users with the Contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks against anyone who clicks the badge, including administrators.
