Official description
The WP MAPS PRO WordPress plugin before 6.1.3 does not perform a capability check in one of its AJAX actions, which is also available to unauthenticated users, and does not properly validate a user-controlled path before using it in a file inclusion, allowing unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary existing local PHP files on the server.
