Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
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.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated reservation-status manipulation in the Food Menu WordPress plugin (versions before 6.0.2) allows any site visitor to alter the status of arbitrary bookings without authentication. The plugin's reservation-status update action is exposed without capability or ownership verification, and the only gate - a WordPress nonce - is publicly accessible to all visitors, rendering it ineffective as an access control boundary. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV) and EPSS sits at 0.15%, but the zero-friction exploitation path on any affected food-service or restaurant site makes it a meaningful integrity risk for operators relying on accurate reservation data.
Technical ContextAI
The Food Menu WordPress plugin (affected versions below 6.0.2, as confirmed by EUVD ID EUVD-2026-57724 and WPScan advisory af15ecd8-a656-45ab-a1d4-85704d6d8051) registers a WordPress AJAX action for updating reservation statuses that lacks both capability checks (e.g., checking the current_user_can() gate) and ownership verification (ensuring the requester owns or manages the targeted reservation). The root cause is classified as CWE-284 (Improper Access Control). WordPress nonces are designed as CSRF tokens, not authentication mechanisms - they are routinely embedded in page source visible to all visitors. Relying solely on a public nonce to guard a privileged action provides no meaningful access control against an attacker who can simply read the nonce from any front-end page load.
RemediationAI
Update the Food Menu WordPress plugin to version 6.0.2 or later, which is confirmed as the patched release per vendor advisory (https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/af15ecd8-a656-45ab-a1d4-85704d6d8051/). For sites unable to update immediately, the most effective compensating control is to disable the reservation functionality entirely within the plugin settings until the patch can be applied - this eliminates the exposed endpoint without affecting other plugin features such as menu display. Alternatively, a web application firewall rule blocking unauthenticated POST requests to the affected AJAX action endpoint (typically wp-admin/admin-ajax.php with the specific action parameter) can reduce exposure, though this requires knowledge of the precise action hook name and may interfere with legitimate reservation workflows. There are no known side effects of upgrading to 6.0.2 beyond the access control fix itself.
