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 Booking Calendar for Appointments and Service Businesses – Booktics plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on multiple REST API endpoints in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.16. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to query sensitive data.

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 Booktics WordPress plugin has multiple REST API endpoints that lack proper capability checks, allowing unauthenticated attackers to query sensitive booking data including customer information, appointment details, and service records.

MitigationUpdate the Booktics plugin to version 1.0.17 or later which implements proper capability checks on all REST API endpoints. Until then, consider restricting REST API access or deploying a web application firewall.

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. Confirm Booktics plugin is installed
    Access WordPress admin panel, navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins, and search for 'Booktics' in the list of active plugins
    Affected if Booktics plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Identify installed Booktics version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins, locate Booktics, and note the version number displayed below the plugin name
    Affected if Version is lower than 1.0.17 or version cannot be determined (indicating potentially unpatched)
  3. Verify WordPress REST API is accessible
    Send a GET request to your site's /wp-json/ endpoint (e.g., https://yoursite.com/wp-json/) using curl or a browser
    Affected if REST API returns a 200 OK response, indicating the API is exposed
  4. Test Booktics REST API endpoint exposure
    Send an unauthenticated GET request to common Booktics REST endpoints such as /wp-json/booktics/v1/bookings or /wp-json/booktics/v1/customers
    Affected if The endpoint returns HTTP 200 with booking data, customer information, or service records without requiring authentication

If Booktics plugin is installed with a version below 1.0.17 and the REST API is accessible, the site is likely affected by unauthenticated sensitive data exposure.
