What is the CVSS score of CVE-2026-62048?

CVE-2026-62048 has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.3 (Critical). CVSS vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L. EPSS exploitation probability: 0.3%.

How to fix or mitigate CVE-2026-62048?

Within 24 hours, inventory all WordPress sites using the BookIt plugin, verify versions, and apply virtual patching via a web application firewall or disable the plugin if not business-critical; also restrict network access to wp-admin and implement rate limiting. Within 7 days, if the plugin is essential, isolate it behind additional authentication or apply vendor-recommended workarounds (if any), and continuously monitor for exploitation signs. Within 30 days, escalate to the vendor for a patch, and if none is forthcoming, migrate to an alternative booking solution or keep the plugin disabled until a fix is released by BookIt (versions after 2.6.0.6).

Sign in to read
Exploitation Conditions	Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), exploitation requires only network access to a WordPress site running the BookIt plugin version 2.6.0.6 or earlier, with no authentication and no user interaction against default installations. The specific vulnerable feature, request parameter, or endpoint is not described in the available sources. The primary limiting factor is deployment scope: only sites with this plugin installed and not yet updated past 2.6.0.6 are affected; no non-default configuration is stated as a prerequisite.
Impact	Multiple signals point to a genuine priority. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) describes a remotely reachable, low-complexity flaw requiring no privileges and no user interaction, and the vuln.today decision label is 'act_now', reinforcing urgency. CWE-89 SQL injection in a WordPress plugin with PR:N means remote attackers (unauthenticated, per PR:N) can reach the flaw directly. However, several high-value signals are absent: no EPSS exploitation-probability score was supplied, there is no CISA KEV listing (so this is not confirmed active exploitation), and no verified public exploit code is provided - the sole reference is the Patchstack advisory page. One internal inconsistency is worth noting: the input vector is scored S:C with C:H/I:N/A:L, yet a SQL injection would typically expose database contents (confidentiality) and plausibly allow data modification; the I:N (no integrity impact) and the scope-change (S:C) assignments are not explained by the evidence and should be verified against the Patchstack record. In short, this is a real, patch-worthy issue driven by the act_now label and the unauthenticated network vector, but the 9.3 figure rests partly on an unexplained scope-change; absent EPSS/KEV data, treat widespread active exploitation as unconfirmed rather than established.
Exploit ScenarioDerived	A remote, unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted HTTP request to a BookIt plugin endpoint (version 2.6.0.6 or earlier) containing malicious SQL in a parameter that is not properly neutralized, causing the injected SQL to execute against the WordPress database. This allows extraction of sensitive data such as user records and credentials. No public exploit code is confirmed in the available sources, and the specific vulnerable endpoint or parameter is not described.

AnalysisAIv1 – Nov 01, 2026

Unauthenticated SQL injection in the BookIt WordPress plugin through 2.6.0.6 allows remote attackers to read data from an affected site's database, based on the assessed high confidentiality-only impact. Exploitation requires only network access to a WordPress installation with BookIt active, with no authentication or user interaction per the assessed vector, so exposure is limited to sites that have not updated past 2.6.0.6. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV entry is present in the provided data, but the vuln.today decision label is act_now, so affected sites should be prioritized for remediation.

RemediationAI

No exact fixed version is specified in the provided data; update BookIt to a release the vendor confirms as patched, using the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/bookit/vulnerability/wordpress-bookit-plugin-2-6-0-6-sql-injection-vulnerability?_s_id=cve as the reference for fixed-version guidance. Because only WordPress sites with the plugin installed are affected, sites that cannot update immediately should deactivate BookIt, accepting loss of booking functionality in exchange for removing the plugin's attack surface. Prioritize internet-reachable sites running BookIt at or below 2.6.0.6, since the assessed vector shows unauthenticated network exploitation with high confidentiality impact.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected component is the Liquid Web / StellarWP BookIt WordPress plugin, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:liquid_web_/_stellarwp:bookit:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and described as affected from n/a through 2.6.0.6. CWE-89 describes the root cause as improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command, meaning attacker-supplied input can reach a SQL query without adequate parameterization or escaping. The provided sources do not identify the vulnerable endpoint, request parameter, or code path, so the trigger is not described in the available sources. The authoritative assessed vector is CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, which indicates network-reachable, unauthenticated exploitation with high confidentiality impact and no assessed integrity or availability impact; the supplied 9.3 score uses a different vector and should not be read as evidence of data modification or denial-of-service capability.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

CVE-2026-62048 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in the BookIt WordPress plugin (versions through 2.6.0.6) that allows unauthenticated attackers to read sensitive data from affected sites' databases, posing a significant confidentiality risk to customer information and business data. Since the plugin is widely used for appointment booking and no patch is currently available, all organizations running BookIt must take immediate action to mitigate exposure and protect their WordPress installations.

Business Impact: High

Compensating Controls

No vendor patch is available. Interim mitigations include deploying a web application firewall (WAF) with virtual patching to block SQL injection attempts, disabling the BookIt plugin until a patch is released, restricting network access to the WordPress admin interface, and monitoring database logs for anomalous queries.
