Unauthenticated Sensitive Data Exposure in Simply Schedule Appointments < 1.6.11.2 versions.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated sensitive data exposure in the Simply Schedule Appointments WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.6.11.2 allows remote attackers to retrieve protected information without credentials over the network. The flaw is reported by Patchstack and carries a CVSS 7.5 (high) confidentiality-only impact, with no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Technical ContextAI
Simply Schedule Appointments is a WordPress appointment-booking plugin published by nsquared (CPE cpe:2.3:a:nsquared:simply_schedule_appointments). The root cause is CWE-201 (Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Sent Data), meaning the plugin returns data via an exposed surface - typically a REST/AJAX endpoint reachable from the WordPress front end - that should have been restricted to authenticated or privileged callers. Because WordPress plugins commonly expose /wp-json/ REST routes, a missing permission_callback or weak capability check is the typical mechanism behind this CWE in this ecosystem, allowing data intended for booking administrators or scheduled attendees to leak to anonymous requesters.
RemediationAI
Patch available per vendor advisory - upgrade the Simply Schedule Appointments plugin to version 1.6.11.2 or later via the WordPress plugin updater, and confirm details on the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/simply-schedule-appointments/vulnerability/wordpress-simply-schedule-appointments-plugin-1-6-11-2-sensitive-data-exposure-vulnerability. If immediate patching is not possible, deactivate the plugin (side effect: appointment booking functionality is lost) or place the site behind a WAF / virtual patch (Patchstack, Wordfence) with a rule blocking anonymous requests to the plugin's REST/AJAX endpoints under /wp-json/ssa/ and admin-ajax.php?action=ssa_* (side effect: legitimate unauthenticated booking flows may break and require testing). Restricting access to the WordPress REST API for unauthenticated users is an additional compensating control but will impact any other plugin that relies on public REST routes.
