Description
The Food Menu WordPress plugin before 6.0.2 does not perform any capability or ownership check on its reservation-status update action, which is also exposed to unauthenticated users and gated only by a nonce that is publicly available to visitors, allowing unauthenticated attackers to change the status of arbitrary reservations.

AI Analysis

Impact

The WordPress Food Menu plugin versions before 6.0.2 allow attackers to alter the status of any reservation without authentication or ownership checks. The modification endpoint is exposed to unauthenticated users and is protected only by a nonce that is publicly available to all site visitors. This flaw permits arbitrary state changes to sensitive reservation data, allowing an attacker to mark reservations as confirmed, completed, or cancelled at will, potentially disrupting business operations, customer service, and financial processing.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects installations of the Food Menu plugin for WordPress with versions earlier than 6.0.2. No specific vendor or deeper version detail is supplied beyond the < 6.0.2 boundary, so any site using an older release of the plugin is potentially vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 5.3, and the EPSS score is less than 1%, indicating moderate severity and a low likelihood of exploitation. Because the flaw enables complete reservation status manipulation without needing any credentials, the potential impact is moderate. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. While the attack vector is inferred to be remote over the public web through the reservation status endpoint, the concrete conditions for exploitation require that the endpoint is reachable and that an attacker can guess or compute the required nonce parameters, which may be trivial if a non‑encrypted public nonce is used.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update Food Menu to version 6.0.2 or later, which implements proper authorization checks for reservation status changes
  • Configure the WordPress site’s security or firewall settings to block unauthenticated access to reservation modification endpoints and to limit such actions to authenticated administrators or staff roles
  • Perform a security audit of other plugins and code paths that may be exposing sensitive operations without sufficient authorization checks, ensuring all critical state changes are protected by proper authentication and role‑based access control
