Description
The LatePoint – Calendar Booking Plugin for Appointments and Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 5.6.3 via the LatePointAbilityDeleteBooking::execute due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for attackers, with LatePoint Agent-level access and above, to read bookings and customer PII (full name, email, phone, and notes) assigned to other LatePoint agents, and delete arbitrary bookings by supplying any booking ID. This vulnerability is only exploitable when an administrator has enabled the Abilities API toggles (latepoint_abilities_api, latepoint_abilities_api_delete, and/or latepoint_abilities_api_edit) in the plugin settings.

AI Analysis

Impact

The flaw lies in LatePointAbilityDeleteBooking::execute where a user‑controlled key is passed without validation, allowing an authenticated attacker with Agent‑level or higher access to delete any booking by providing its ID. The same lack of checks lets the attacker read booking and customer personal information—including full name, email, phone, and notes—associated with other agents. This idempotent insecure reference is a classic IDOR vulnerability (CWE‑639).

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the LatePoint Calendar Booking Plugin for WordPress, all releases up to and including version 5.6.3. It is present regardless of the site’s WordPress version as long as the plugin is installed and the Abilities API toggles are enabled.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.3 indicates a moderate impact. EPSS is below 1 % and the flaw is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, suggesting a low probability of widespread exploitation. The attack vector requires that the plugin’s Abilities API toggles (latepoint_abilities_api, latepoint_abilities_api_delete, and/or latepoint_abilities_api_edit) have been enabled and that the attacker possesses Agent‑level credentials or higher. Therefore, while the impact includes data exposure and data deletion, the likelihood of exploitation is mitigated by the need for privileged access and specific plugin configuration.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Check LatePoint for an official update that addresses this vulnerability and apply it.
  • Disable the Abilities API toggles (latepoint_abilities_api, latepoint_abilities_api_delete, and latepoint_abilities_api_edit) if the API functionality is not required.
  • Restrict or remove Agent‑level access from untrusted users, ensuring only trusted accounts can perform booking operations.
  • Ensure logging and monitoring of booking API calls to detect any unauthorized activity.
