CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe VikBooking Hotel Booking Engine & PMS plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping in the 'vbfX' parameter. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts that execute when users access affected pages, potentially compromising user data and site integrity. WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize remediation to mitigate the risk of exploitation.
Original NVD Description
The VikBooking Hotel Booking Engine & PMS plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'vbfX' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.13 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The vbfX custom-field value is stored via the public-facing saveorder task, which has no capability or authentication check enforced by default, enabling fully unauthenticated submission of malicious payloads.
