Exploitation Conditions

Requires the target WordPress site to run the Taxi Booking Manager for WooCommerce plugin at a version before 2.0.8 (and, given it is a WooCommerce extension, WooCommerce active). Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), exploitation is remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity, and needs no user interaction against a default install - the alternate path/channel bypasses the authentication check itself. The primary limiting factor is not access difficulty but impact scope: the all-LOW C/I/A triad indicates the bypass grants only bounded access to protected plugin functionality rather than full administrative control. The exact vulnerable endpoint/feature is not specified in available data.

Impact

This is a genuine unauthenticated authentication-bypass flaw, but its real-world priority is moderate rather than critical. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L, base 7.3) is internally consistent and aligns with CWE-288 (Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel): the attacker reaches protected functionality over the network with no privileges, no user interaction, and low complexity. However, the impact metrics are all LOW (C:L/I:L/A:L), which tells the real story - bypassing authentication here yields bounded access to protected functionality rather than full site or admin takeover, so the CVSS is inflated by the ease-of-access metrics more than by consequence. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public POC are present in the provided data, so there is no signal of active exploitation or automated weaponization. Only a single Patchstack advisory backs the finding; no SSVC decision-framework data (exploitation/automatable/technical-impact) was supplied. Net: treat as a should-patch (patch is available in 2.0.8), not a drop-everything emergency, and note the low product footprint further reduces aggregate risk.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote unauthenticated attacker crafts a request to the plugin using an alternate path or channel that skips the normal authentication check, gaining access to protected Taxi Booking Manager functionality on a WooCommerce site running a version before 2.0.8. Because the CVSS is PR:N/UI:N/AC:L, no credentials, victim interaction, or special tooling are required. No public exploit code was identified in the provided data, so exploitation would currently require the attacker to independently reconstruct the alternate access path.

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 22, 2026

Unauthenticated attackers can bypass authentication in the WordPress plugin Taxi Booking Manager for WooCommerce (Magepeople Inc.) at versions before 2.0.8, reaching plugin functionality that should require a valid session - an alternate path or channel skips the authentication check entirely. Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), exploitation is remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity, and requires no user interaction on a default install with the plugin (and WooCommerce) active; however, the all-LOW confidentiality, integrity, and availability scores mean the bypass yields only bounded access rather than full administrative takeover. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not listed in CISA KEV, so this is a genuine unauthenticated authentication-bypass issue whose real-world priority is moderate rather than critical.

RemediationAI

Upgrade the Taxi Booking Manager for WooCommerce plugin to version 2.0.8 or later - this is the vendor-released fix version and the primary and sufficient remediation for the reported flaw (Vendor-released patch: 2.0.8). Confirm the update through the WordPress plugin dashboard or by replacing the ecab-taxi-booking-manager directory from the vendor's distribution, and verify afterward that the installed version string reports 2.0.8+. If an immediate update is not possible, compensating controls are limited and each carries trade-offs: temporarily deactivate the plugin, which fully removes the attack surface but also disables all taxi-booking functionality on the store; or, if the plugin must stay online, place a WAF rule or reverse-proxy restriction in front of the plugin's handler endpoints (admin-ajax.php actions and any REST namespaces registered by the plugin) requiring a valid authenticated WordPress session, accepting that this is brittle because the exact vulnerable route is not documented and legitimate anonymous booking flows may be interrupted. Monitoring for anomalous unauthenticated requests to plugin endpoints can help detect attempts, but is not a substitute for patching.

Technical ContextAI · show details

CWE-288 (Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel) describes a class of flaw in which a protected resource or function is reachable through a route that does not enforce the same authentication gate as the intended entry point. In this WordPress plugin context, the Taxi Booking Manager for WooCommerce extension registers its own endpoints/handlers (typically admin-ajax.php actions, REST routes, or direct request handlers) and one of those channels fails to verify the caller's identity or capability before performing its work. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:magepeople_inc.:taxi_booking_manager_for_woocommerce:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms the affected component is the Magepeople Inc. plugin itself (published under the slug ecab-taxi-booking-manager), a WooCommerce extension, so an affected site must also be running WooCommerce for the plugin's code paths to be active. Because the underlying weakness is a missing authorization check rather than an input-handling bug, the vulnerability does not require crafted payloads or a valid account; it is the routing/enforcement gap itself that permits the bypass. The exact vulnerable endpoint or feature is not specified in the available data.

DescriptionCVE.org

Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel vulnerability in Magepeople inc. Taxi Booking Manager for WooCommerce allows Authentication Bypass.

This issue affects Taxi Booking Manager for WooCommerce: from n/a before 2.0.8.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Taxi Booking Manager for WooCommerce (Magepeople Inc.) versions before 2.0.8 contain an unauthenticated authentication bypass (CVE-2026-93928) that allows remote attackers to access plugin functionality without a valid session. Organizations using this plugin for online booking and payments may face unauthorized bookings, data exposure, or service disruptions, though the impact is bounded to low confidentiality, integrity, and availability. With no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, leadership should prioritize remediation based on the plugin's role in revenue-generating operations.

Business Impact: Medium
Compensating Controls

Disable the plugin if not business-critical; restrict access to plugin endpoints via WAF or IP allowlisting; monitor logs for unauthorized access; consider replacing the plugin with a supported alternative.
