 * Hello,
 * According to patchstack the current version of the plugin (and lower versions)
   is vulnerable.
 * See [https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/interactive-geo-maps/vulnerability/wordpress-interactive-geo-maps-plugin-1-6-24-reflected-cross-site-scripting-xss-vulnerability?_a_id=110](https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/interactive-geo-maps/vulnerability/wordpress-interactive-geo-maps-plugin-1-6-24-reflected-cross-site-scripting-xss-vulnerability?_a_id=110)
 * Are you planning a fix?

 * Greetings, when there’s a security vulnerability found, usually these companies
   send the plugin authors at least a month before it’s made public, instructions
   on where the issue is and suggestions on how to fix it, so that when the issue
   is made public, there’s already a fixed version. We are currently awaiting additional
   instructions from patchstack with more information. We apologize for the delay
   however we are waiting also for feedback which may take a week to validate.

 * I can confirm this from our local env . One of the vulnerability was via `post_type
   =igmap&page=interactive-geo-maps-pricing` which was fixed by `freemius-sdk v2.11.0`
   and we patched in `v1.6.23`. The other one was in any tab, where user could inject
   encoded JavaScript snippets or images with links and trick users to click. We
   have fixed this in `v1.6.25` by sanitizing url params before using them

 * Thanks for the updates, look forward to seeing a new version we can download 
   soon to fix.

 * WordFence has also flagged a security vulnerability.
 * [https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/wordpress-plugins/interactive-geo-maps/interactive-geo-maps-1624-reflected-cross-site-scripting](https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/wordpress-plugins/interactive-geo-maps/interactive-geo-maps-1624-reflected-cross-site-scripting)
 * I have some sites with the Pro version and some with the free. The free version
   can only be updated to 1.6.18, although I can uninstall and then download 1.6.24,
   this does not include the security update. Will there be a rollout for the free
   version?

 * Hello, just following up on this – it is marked as RESOLVED but doesn’t appear
   to be? At least, I don’t see a patched version available for download anywhere?

 * Hello, when will the version be online? On my end, I don’t have anything at all.
   Thanks.

 * New version does not seem online despite this showing as resolved and statements
   of “we rolled out a new patched version” which is now 2 days ago.
   Can we ask 
   if developers if this can be fetched manually elsewhere (your own site?) if it’s
   not here?
