Unauthenticated record deletion via update_appointment_booked
Published Aug 19, 2026 · Updated Aug 19, 2026
Missing authorization in the TrueBooker WordPress plugin before 1.2.7 allows remote attackers to delete booking data via AJAX. The update_appointment_booked AJAX action accepts unauthenticated requests and deletes appointment, booking item, and payment records without an authorization or ownership check. Any site exposing the plugin through WordPress AJAX is reachable without login, so the consequence is direct integrity loss and possible booking workflow disruption rather than code execution or data disclosure.
