Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
The WP Travel Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary user deletion via the /wp-json/wp-travel/v1/travel-guide/{user_id} REST API endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 10.6.0. This is due to the check_permission() callback unconditionally returning true and the Database::delete() method passing the user ID directly to wp_delete_user() without any role validation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary user accounts, including those of administrators.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated arbitrary user deletion in the WP Travel Pro WordPress plugin (versions through 10.6.0) allows remote attackers to delete any WordPress account, including administrators, via an exposed REST API endpoint. The flaw stems from a broken permission callback combined with missing role validation, producing a CVSS 9.1 integrity/availability impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the trivial nature of the bug and Wordfence's disclosure make weaponization straightforward for any actor reading the advisory.
Technical ContextAI
WP Travel Pro is a commercial travel-booking plugin from WP Travel (wptravel.io) for WordPress, deployed by tour operators and travel agencies. The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-862 (Missing Authorization): the plugin registers a REST route at /wp-json/wp-travel/v1/travel-guide/{user_id} whose check_permission() callback unconditionally returns true, effectively disabling WordPress's permission_callback security model that is supposed to gate REST endpoints. Compounding this, the internal Database::delete() helper passes the supplied user_id straight to WordPress core's wp_delete_user() function without verifying the caller's capability (e.g., delete_users) or the target's role, so any user ID - including ID 1 (typically the site administrator) - can be removed. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:wptravel:wp_travel_pro:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covering all versions up to and including 10.6.0.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis from the supplied references; site owners should monitor https://wptravel.io/wp-travel-pro/ and the Wordfence advisory at https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/885dd550-4c80-4e36-8dae-cb47c1500ea5?source=cve for a fixed release above 10.6.0 and upgrade as soon as one is published. In the interim, block or restrict access to the /wp-json/wp-travel/v1/travel-guide/ route at the web server, WAF, or via a must-use plugin that filters rest_pre_dispatch - this prevents the deletion path but will also break any legitimate travel-guide management workflow that depends on that endpoint. If the travel-guide feature is not in active use, deactivating WP Travel Pro entirely is the safest mitigation; sites that must keep it active should additionally take a fresh database backup and enumerate existing administrator accounts so any deletion can be quickly detected and the account restored.
