The TrueBooker WordPress plugin before 1.2.7 does not have proper authorisation checks in some of its AJAX actions, allowing unauthenticated users to change the email address of arbitrary users, including administrators, and subsequently take over their account via the password reset flow.

AnalysisAI
Account takeover in the TrueBooker WordPress plugin (all versions before 1.2.7) lets remote unauthenticated attackers change the email address of any registered user - including administrators - through AJAX actions that lack authorisation checks, then hijack the account via WordPress's standard password-reset flow. The flaw carries a CVSS 9.8 and is fixed in 1.2.7; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS remains low (0.15%, 4th percentile), reflecting limited observed weaponisation despite the critical rating.

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The only prerequisite is that the target WordPress site has the TrueBooker plugin installed and active at a version below 1.2.7 and reachable over the network; the vulnerable AJAX actions are exposed to unauthenticated callers by default, so no special plugin configuration, authentication, or user interaction is required (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are mixed but lean toward genuine priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 1.2.7 - upgrade the TrueBooker plugin to version 1.2.7 or later immediately, as this is the primary and complete fix. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
