Missing Authorization vulnerability in DOTonPAPER Pinpoint Booking System booking-system allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Pinpoint Booking System: from n/a through <= 2.9.9.6.5.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated remote attackers can bypass access control in DOTonPAPER Pinpoint Booking System versions up to 2.9.9.6.5 to view sensitive booking data due to missing authorization checks on API endpoints. The vulnerability allows information disclosure with low confidentiality impact, and while CVSS rates it 5.3 (medium), the 0.02% EPSS score indicates minimal real-world exploitation probability despite the straightforward network-based attack vector.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability stems from CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) in the Pinpoint Booking System WordPress plugin, indicating that application endpoints lack proper access control verification before serving sensitive resources. The plugin fails to validate user permissions or authentication tokens when processing booking-related requests, allowing unauthenticated network clients to directly access endpoints that should be restricted. The attack requires no user interaction or complex prerequisites (AC:L), making the underlying authorization logic a fundamental architectural weakness rather than a complex exploitation requirement.
RemediationAI
Update DOTonPAPER Pinpoint Booking System to a version higher than 2.9.9.6.5; the vendor's Patchstack advisory should be consulted for the exact patched release number. Users unable to immediately update should restrict access to booking endpoints via Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules or htaccess/nginx directives to require authentication tokens or IP whitelisting. The Patchstack database entry (https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/booking-system/vulnerability/wordpress-pinpoint-booking-system-plugin-2-9-9-6-5-broken-access-control-vulnerability?_s_id=cve) and NIST CVE detail (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-39678) provide advisory context.
