Remote code execution via unvalidated reservation upload
Published Dec 12, 2022 · Updated Apr 22, 2025
Unrestricted file upload in WpDevArt Booking calendar, Appointment Booking System before 3.2.2 allows remote attackers to execute PHP. The save_reserv function accepts a multipart file without validating its type and writes it under wp-content/uploads/booking_calendar, where PHP is executable. An unauthenticated request needs only the public page nonce, enabling arbitrary server-side code execution under the web server account.
