CVE-2026-111727 Details
Description
The Appointment Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'vs_text_submitbtn' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.05 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires the attacker to be assigned as a calendar owner, a per-user grant that any administrator can extend to users as low as Subscriber level through the plugin's calendar list screen. Exploitation by attackers with subscriber-level access and above requires that an administrator has assigned the attacker's account as owner (`conwer`) of a calendar via the plugin's calendar list screen; the plugin's UI lists all registered users regardless of role, so a Subscriber can be assigned. On a default installation, where that is not configured, the vulnerability requires attackers with editor-level access and above.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the Appointment Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 1.4.05. The issue arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping, allowing authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access and above to inject arbitrary scripts into pages. These scripts execute when a user accesses the compromised page. Exploitation requires the attacker to be designated as a calendar owner, a role that can be assigned by administrators to users with subscriber-level access. In default installations, this vulnerability is accessible only to users with editor-level access or higher.
Users are advised to update the Appointment Booking Calendar plugin to version 1.4.06 or a newer patched version.
