Administrator script execution via unchecked option updates
Published Jun 15, 2026 · Updated Jun 15, 2026
Stored XSS in CodePeople Booking Calendar Contact Form 1.0.23 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to run script in administrator browsers. Plugin option, season-price, and booking-management handlers accept subscriber-controlled fields without capability checks and store them without output-safe sanitization. A subscriber account is sufficient; an administrator who later opens the affected settings or booking data executes the stored payload in the site's origin.
