CVE-2026-116751 Details
Description
The Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar – Amelia Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the 'tag[] (array KEYS)' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 9.9.1 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. WordPress's wp_magic_quotes escapes array values but not array keys, meaning attacker-controlled tag[] array keys reach EventRepository::getFilteredIds() completely unescaped and can be crafted to defeat the plugin's Statement::execute placeholder binder via overlapping strtr() substitution keys.
A time-based SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in the Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar – Amelia Pro plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions prior to and including 9.9.1. The vulnerability arises from inadequate escaping of user-supplied data in the 'tag[]' parameter array keys, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject additional SQL queries into existing ones. This exploitation could lead to the unauthorized extraction of sensitive information from the database. The issue is exacerbated by WordPress's wp_magic_quotes function, which escapes array values but not keys, leaving the 'tag[]' array keys unprotected and vulnerable to crafted attacks that manipulate the plugin's SQL query execution.
Users are advised to update the Amelia Pro WordPress plugin to version 9.9.2 or a newer patched version.
