If you want to use this module, your options are:
- Choose another, actively maintained module instead
- File an issue in the queue with a patch to fix the module and then contact the security team to have your version reviewed and the project handed over to you following the unsupported project process.
- Hire someone to fix the security bug so the module can be re-published (see this guide on how to hire a Drupal site developer)
The maintainers of Feed Element Mapper launched a successor project: Feeds - read more about the future of FeedAPI and Feed Element Mapper in Good bye FeedAPI, hello Feeds
Add-on module for FeedAPI that maps elements on a feed item such as tags or the author name to taxonomy or CCK fields. These mappings are configurable by point and click.
You can map any element in a feed to:
- Taxonomy (part of Drupal core)
- CCK text and numbers
- CCK link
- CCK embedded media field
- Location module type locations
- CCK date
- Any field on a node you build your own mapper for

For Developers
Aside from a UI for point and click mapping, this module provides a hook based API for mapping any feed item element to any field (=property, in the widest sense of the word) of a node object. If you're trying to build such a "mapper" a good place to start is to check out one of the existing mappers, read the documentation in the module's feedapi_mapper.api.php or this blog post on how to build one: Build Your Own Mapper with the Feed Element Mapper
