About Vulnerability
-------------------
This plugin is vulnerable to a combination of CSRF/XSS attack meaning that if an admin user can be tricked to visit a crafted URL created by attacker (via spear phishing/social engineering), the attacker can insert arbitrary script into admin page. Once exploited, admin’s browser can be made to do almost anything the admin user could typically do by hijacking admin's cookies etc. 

Vulnerability Class
===================     
Cross Site Request Forgery (https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Cross-Site_Request_Forgery_%28CSRF%29)
Cross Site Scripting       (https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Top_10_2013-A3-Cross-Site_Scripting_(XSS) 

Steps to Reproduce: (POC)
=========================

After installing the plugin
After installing the plugin

1. Goto settings -> Google Map Travel

2. Insert this payload ## "> <script>+-+-1-+-+alert(document.cookie)</script> ## Into Any above mention Vulnerable parameter  
Save settings and see XSS in action
