CVE-2026-12937
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 · uneditedThe Tourfic – AI Powered Travel Booking, Hotel Booking & Car Rental WordPress Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'post_id' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.22.7 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. The AJAX handler is registered for unauthenticated users via wp_ajax_nopriv_tf_room_availability, and the required nonce is emitted on the public single-hotel page template, allowing unauthenticated attackers to freely obtain a valid nonce and reach the vulnerable code path.
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 confidenceThe Tourfic WordPress plugin contains a SQL injection vulnerability in its room availability AJAX handler (wp_ajax_nopriv_tf_room_availability). The 'post_id' parameter is not properly escaped and the SQL query lacks prepared statements, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary SQL. The required nonce is publicly exposed on single-hotel pages, making exploitation straightforward.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm Tourfic plugin is installedNavigate to WordPress admin dashboard > Plugins and verify Tourfic plugin appears in the installed plugins list, or check /wp-content/plugins/ for a tourfic folderAffected if Tourfic plugin is installed and active in WordPress
-
Check installed Tourfic versionIn WordPress admin > Plugins, click on Tourfic to view the version details, or read the Version field from the plugin header in the main PHP fileAffected if Version is lower than 2.22.8 (the patched release)
-
Verify the vulnerable AJAX handler existsCheck if the file includes the tf_room_availability AJAX action by searching for 'add_action("wp_ajax_nopriv_tf_room_availability"' or 'wp_ajax_nopriv_tf_room_availability' in the plugin codeAffected if The AJAX handler wp_ajax_nopriv_tf_room_availability is registered in the plugin
-
Confirm nonce is exposed on single-hotel pagesVisit a published single-hotel page, view the page source, and search for the string 'tf_room_availability' or '_wpnonce' to see if the nonce value is printed in public HTMLAffected if The nonce required for the AJAX request is visible in the source of publicly accessible hotel pages
The environment is affected if Tourfic plugin version is below 2.22.8 AND the room availability AJAX endpoint is registered and accessible without authentication, allowing the SQL injection to be exploited via the post_id parameter.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpdate the Tourfic plugin to version 2.22.8 or later. Until patched, consider disabling the affected AJAX endpoint via WordPress hooks or deploying a WAF rule to block malicious post_id values.
