Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires a target WordPress site running the Booktics plugin version 1.0.31 or earlier, where an access-control check on a plugin action is missing or incorrectly configured. Per the CVSS vector (PR:N/UI:N), no authentication or user interaction is required, so any network-reachable installation is a candidate. The specific endpoint, action, or configuration that exposes the flaw is not described in the available sources; the main limiting factors are the low integrity-only impact (no data disclosure or availability loss) and the relatively narrow deployment footprint of this plugin.

Impact

This is a moderate-severity Missing Authorization flaw (CWE-862) in the Booktics WordPress plugin, scored CVSS 5.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N). The vector indicates network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation with no privileges or user interaction, but impact is limited to a low integrity effect only (C:N/I:L/A:N), meaning an attacker can likely invoke a protected action or alter some data without authentication, not read sensitive data or affect availability. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month' (not act_now/emergency), consistent with a real but non-critical priority. There is no CISA KEV listing and no EPSS score supplied, so there is no signal of active or widespread exploitation; the only reference is a Patchstack advisory, which is a vulnerability database entry rather than confirmed working exploit code. Net: a legitimate issue to patch on a normal cadence, not a drop-everything emergency - the unauthenticated network vector raises attention, but the low single-impact ceiling and absence of KEV/EPSS/PoC-exploit evidence keep real-world risk moderate. Note the exact protected feature affected is not described in the available sources.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An unauthenticated remote attacker sends a crafted request directly to a Booktics plugin endpoint whose access-control check is missing or misconfigured, invoking functionality or modifying data that should require authorization. Because no authentication or user interaction is needed, this can be scripted against exposed WordPress sites, though the concrete action affected is not described in the available sources. No working public exploit is identified; a Patchstack advisory reference exists but is not verified as working exploit code.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 30, 2026

Missing authorization in the Arraytics Booktics WordPress plugin (all versions through 1.0.31) lets unauthenticated remote attackers invoke a plugin action that should be gated behind an access-control check, with integrity-only impact. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N, score 5.3) indicates no credentials or user interaction are required, but the flaw permits only limited modification of data - no disclosure of information and no loss of availability. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the issue is not in CISA KEV; the assessed priority is 'this_month', and the practical exposure is bounded by the plugin's relatively narrow deployment footprint.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch is identified in the available data for CVE-2026-62122: the only reference is the Patchstack advisory for the Booktics plugin at version 1.0.31 (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/booktics/vulnerability/wordpress-booktics-plugin-1-0-31-broken-access-control-vulnerability), which should be monitored for the release of a patched Booktics version before upgrading. Because the affected action and endpoint are not identified in the available sources, targeted virtual patching or WAF rule creation cannot be reliably scoped; the actionable compensating control is to deactivate and remove the Booktics plugin on sites where online booking is not required, or to place the site behind restricted access until a fixed release is published. Note the trade-off: deactivating the plugin removes booking and appointment functionality for legitimate visitors, and front-end access restriction degrades the public site experience for all users, so confirm the plugin's business necessity before disabling it.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Booktics is a WordPress booking/appointment plugin maintained by Arraytics. The flaw is CWE-862 (Missing Authorization): a plugin action handler performs an operation without verifying that the caller holds the required capability (for example a current_user_can()/nonce capability check), and this access-control logic is described in the source advisory as incorrectly configured. Because the CVSS vector carries PR:N and UI:N, the endpoint is reachable by any network client without authentication or interaction; the impact is confined to integrity (I:L), meaning an attacker can make a limited, unauthorized change rather than read data or disrupt service. The specific endpoint, action name, or configuration that exposes the missing check is not described in the available sources, so the precise trigger is not confirmed from the supplied intelligence. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:arraytics:booktics:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covers every released version of the plugin up to and including 1.0.31, indicating no version branch is exempt.
