|
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires (1) the optional 'AI Abilities API' feature of the Appointment Booking Plugin (LatePoint) to be enabled, which is the specific configuration precondition, and (2) the attacker to hold a valid, authenticated LatePoint Agent role account. Given those, the missing per-record authorization check on several Abilities API actions lets the agent read and modify other agents' profile data and read other agents' bookings and customer details. Limiting factors: the Abilities API feature is not a universal default, the attacker must already possess agent-level staff credentials, and impact is confined to cross-agent data (profiles, bookings, customer PII) with no reported path to full site compromise or availability loss. |
| Impact | This is a low-to-moderate real-world risk, not a top priority. The input CVSS of 3.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N) reflects a horizontal privilege escalation (IDOR, CWE-639) rather than a critical RCE: impact is limited to Low confidentiality and Low integrity, with no availability impact and no scope change. No EPSS score, KEV listing, or POC was provided, so exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis'. One signal conflict is worth flagging: the input vector sets PR:H, but the description says the attacker only needs the 'LatePoint Agent' role - a restricted staff role, which is more consistent with PR:L (low-privilege authenticated user) than PR:H; this understates the practical ease of abuse once an agent account exists. Conversely, AC:H likely encodes the dependency on the optional 'AI Abilities API' feature being enabled, which is a genuine limiting condition. Net: a legitimate access-control bug exposing cross-agent PII and allowing profile tampering, but gated behind both a valid agent account and a non-default feature, so it is a targeted/insider-leaning issue rather than a mass-exploitation threat. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A rogue or compromised LatePoint Agent (staff) account calls the AI Abilities API actions and, because per-record authorization is not enforced, manipulates record identifiers to read and alter other agents' profiles and to pull other agents' bookings along with associated customer details. No public exploit code was identified, and exploitation requires a valid agent account plus the Abilities API feature enabled, so the practical risk is primarily malicious-insider or account-takeover driven. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 08, 2026
Authenticated agents can bypass per-record authorization in the Appointment Booking Plugin (LatePoint) before 5.6.9, enabling them to read and modify other agents' profile data and read other agents' bookings and customer details when the optional AI Abilities API feature is enabled. The flaw is a CWE-639 authorization bypass via user-controlled keys. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified, and the assessed CVSS is low (3.3) due to the requirement for an authenticated agent account and the optional feature.
RemediationAI
Update the Appointment Booking Plugin to version 5.6.9 or later. The vendor has released a patch (5.6.9). If immediate updating is not possible, disable the optional AI Abilities API feature, as the vulnerability is only exploitable when that feature is enabled. Additionally, restrict the LatePoint Agent role capabilities to the minimum necessary and monitor agent activity for unauthorized cross-record access. No public exploit code exists, but the assessed low attack complexity (AC:L) means exploitation is straightforward for an authenticated agent, so timely patching is recommended. The WPScan advisory (https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/b7b6c989-b484-4ad6-844c-1dec1c74c34d/) provides further details.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The Appointment Booking Plugin (LatePoint) is a WordPress plugin for scheduling and appointments. It includes an optional 'AI Abilities API' feature that exposes actions for reading and modifying agent records. These actions fail to enforce per-record authorization, meaning they do not verify that the authenticated agent owns the record being accessed. This is a classic CWE-639 authorization bypass through a user-controlled key, where an attacker can manipulate parameters such as agent ID or booking ID to access other agents' data. The vulnerability is limited to installations where the AI Abilities API feature is enabled and only impacts data belonging to other agents (profiles, bookings, customer details), with no reported path to full site compromise or availability loss.

LatePoint Agent is a low-privilege authenticated role (PR:L, not PR:H), and the IDOR is straightforward once the feature is enabled (AC:L); cross-agent read and profile modification give C:L/I:L, no availability impact.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
The Appointment Booking Plugin WordPress plugin before 5.6.9 does not enforce per-record authorization on several of its AI Abilities API actions, allowing an authenticated user holding the LatePoint Agent role, normally restricted to their own records, to read and modify other agents' profile data and read other agents' bookings and associated customer details when the Abilities API feature is enabled.
