What fixes it

A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

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.
