MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | The affected component is the Amelia (ameliabooking) WordPress plugin on versions from n/a through 2.4.10; any WordPress site running a vulnerable Amelia version is potentially exposed. Per CVSS PR:N/UI:N, exploitation is remote and unauthenticated with no user interaction against a vulnerable installation. The available sources do not name the exact endpoint, feature, or configuration that must be reachable, and the description references 'Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels,' so the specific trigger and whether any non-default configuration is required are not described in the available sources. The main limiting factor is impact scope: C:N/I:L/A:N confines the result to a low integrity effect with no confidentiality or availability loss. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity Missing Authorization flaw (CWE-862) in the Amelia WordPress booking plugin, rated CVSS 5.3. The vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity issue requiring no privileges and no user interaction, but impact is narrow: C:N/I:L/A:N means only a low integrity impact with no confidentiality or availability loss - consistent with an unauthorized actor being able to perform or alter a limited set of actions rather than achieving full compromise. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month' (not act_now/emergency), which aligns with a real-but-non-urgent priority. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no confirmed exploit code were provided, so there is no signal of active or widespread exploitation; exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis.' Signals are internally consistent here (moderate CVSS, moderate decision label, no exploitation evidence) - this reads as a genuine access-control bug worth patching on a normal cycle, not a drop-everything emergency. Note the Tags include 'Authentication Bypass,' but the CWE and Patchstack title describe broken access control / missing authorization - these are related but distinct, and the precise mechanism is not described in the available sources. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A remote, unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted request directly to an Amelia plugin endpoint whose access-control check is missing or misconfigured, invoking functionality intended to be restricted. Because only a low integrity impact applies (C:N/I:L/A:N), the likely outcome is unauthorized modification of a limited subset of booking-related data or actions rather than data theft or site takeover. No public exploit code has been identified, and the exact trigger is not described in the available sources. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 26, 2026
Missing authorization (CWE-862) in the TMS Amelia WordPress booking plugin, affecting versions through 2.4.10, lets remote unauthenticated attackers reach functionality that should require proper access-control checks, producing a low integrity impact with no confidentiality or availability loss (CVSS 5.3, PR:N/UI:N). Any WordPress site running a vulnerable Amelia version is potentially exposed, though the sources do not identify the specific endpoint or configuration that must be reachable, and whether a non-default setup is required is not described. A public PoC reference exists in the Patchstack advisory; it is not verified as working exploit code, and there is no CISA KEV confirmation of active exploitation.
RemediationAI
Update the Amelia plugin to a version later than 2.4.10; no fixed version is listed in the available advisory data, so confirm the patched release on the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/ameliabooking/vulnerability/wordpress-amelia-plugin-2-4-10-broken-access-control-vulnerability-3) or in the WordPress plugin directory before rolling out, and verify the installed version after updating. Because the specific vulnerable endpoint and any required configuration are not described in the available sources, targeted virtual patching or feature disabling cannot be scoped from this data; if an update cannot be applied immediately, the interim option is to deactivate the Amelia plugin, accepting the loss of booking and event functionality, or to restrict access to the affected site until a patched version is installed. Review plugin-level access controls and audit recent changes to bookings or plugin settings, given the low integrity impact described by the CVSS vector.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Amelia is a WordPress plugin for appointment booking and event management, distributed through the WordPress plugin ecosystem and tracked here as cpe:2.3:a:tms:amelia. The flaw is classed as CWE-862 Missing Authorization, which means a code path that should be gated by a capability or permission check is reachable without one; the advisory phrases this as 'Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.' The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N indicates a network-reachable, no-prerequisite attack with no user interaction and an unchanged scope, bounded to a low integrity effect. The trigger mechanism, the affected endpoint or plugin feature, and any required non-default configuration are not described in the available sources, so the practical reach of the missing check should be treated as unverified until the vendor advisory or plugin code is reviewed.
