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
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in codepeople Appointment Booking Calendar appointment-booking-calendar allows SQL Injection.This issue affects Appointment Booking Calendar: from n/a through <= 1.3.92.

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 · moderate confidence

A CSRF vulnerability in the Appointment Booking Calendar plugin (versions <= 1.3.92) allows attackers to craft malicious requests that can lead to SQL injection. The lack of proper CSRF token validation on sensitive actions enables attackers to trick authenticated administrators into executing unintended database commands.

MitigationUpdate to the latest patched version when available. Until then, implement CSRF tokens on all state-changing forms and validate the Referer header. Review and parameterize any database queries that process user-supplied 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. Check installed plugin version
    Navigate to WordPress admin dashboard > Plugins > Installed Plugins. Locate 'Codepeople Appointment Booking Calendar' and compare the version number to 1.3.92
    Affected if The installed version is 1.3.92 or lower
  2. Verify plugin is active
    Confirm the Codepeople Appointment Booking Calendar plugin is currently activated in the WordPress plugins list
    Affected if The plugin is active and version is 1.3.92 or lower
  3. Inspect sensitive action forms for CSRF tokens
    Use browser developer tools or grep the plugin files for form submissions that modify data (such as booking management, settings changes, or calendar configurations). Look for the presence of nonce tokens or CSRF token fields in these forms
    Affected if State-changing forms lack CSRF token validation mechanisms
  4. Check Referer header validation
    Examine the plugin PHP source code for server-side validation of the HTTP Referer header on sensitive actions
    Affected if No Referer header validation is performed before executing database operations

If the plugin is active and the installed version is 1.3.92 or lower without CSRF protections on sensitive actions, the environment is vulnerable to CVE-2025-46241.
