Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The WP Hotel Booking plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.7. This is due to the plugin exposing the 'hotel_booking_fetch_customer_info' AJAX action to unauthenticated users without proper capability checks, relying only on a nonce for protection. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve sensitive customer information including full names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses by providing a valid email address and a publicly accessible nonce.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The WP Hotel Booking WordPress plugin (versions up to 2.2.7) exposes the hotel_booking_fetch_customer_info AJAX action to unauthenticated users. The endpoint relies only on a nonce for protection rather than proper capability checks, allowing attackers to retrieve customer PII (names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses) by providing a valid email address and the publicly accessible nonce.

MitigationUpdate to the latest patched version of WP Hotel Booking plugin and ensure the AJAX action includes proper authentication and capability verification before returning customer data.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify WP Hotel Booking plugin installation
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'WP Hotel Booking', or check the plugin files in /wp-content/plugins/ and read the main PHP file header for the Version field
    Affected if The plugin is installed and the Version field shows 2.2.7 or lower
  2. Compare installed version to affected range
    Read the plugin version from the plugin header or version file, then compare numerically against 2.2.7 (any version 2.2.7 or lower is affected)
    Affected if Installed version is 2.2.7 or any earlier version
  3. Verify AJAX action exists
    Check the plugin source code for add_action('wp_ajax_hotel_booking_fetch_customer_info') or add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_hotel_booking_fetch_customer_info') to confirm the vulnerable endpoint is registered
    Affected if The AJAX action 'hotel_booking_fetch_customer_info' is registered, especially with 'wp_ajax_nopriv_' prefix
  4. Confirm lack of capability check in AJAX handler
    Examine the callback function for hotel_booking_fetch_customer_info to see if it calls current_user_can() or a proper capability check before returning customer data
    Affected if The AJAX handler returns customer PII without verifying user capabilities (only relies on nonce validation)

A user is affected if WP Hotel Booking plugin version 2.2.7 or lower is installed and the hotel_booking_fetch_customer_info AJAX action is accessible to unauthenticated users without proper capability verification.
