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 Vagaro Booking Widget plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘vagaro_code’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 0.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

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 Vagaro Booking Widget plugin for WordPress versions up to 0.3 contains a stored XSS vulnerability in the vagaro_code parameter. Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious JavaScript through insufficient input sanitization, which persists in the database and executes whenever users access affected pages due to missing output escaping.

MitigationUpdate the Vagaro Booking Widget plugin to the latest version and audit existing content for injected scripts. Until patched, consider disabling the plugin or implementing a WAF rule to filter malicious vagaro_code parameter submissions.

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. Verify Vagaro Booking Widget plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'Vagaro Booking Widget' or check the plugin files in wp-content/plugins/ directory for the vagaro-booking-widget folder
    Affected if The plugin is installed and active
  2. Check installed plugin version
    In WordPress admin Plugins page, click on the plugin to view details and find the version number, or read the main plugin PHP file header which contains the Version field
    Affected if Version is 0.3 or lower (all versions up to 0.3 are affected)
  3. Inspect database for vagaro_code entries
    Query the wp_options table (or similar options table with prefix) for option_name containing 'vagaro' or look for any stored vagaro_code values: SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE '%vagaro%'
    Affected if Any vagaro_code value exists in the database options table
  4. Examine vagaro_code for malicious scripts
    Review the stored vagaro_code value(s) from the database query for suspicious characters like <script>, javascript:, onerror, onload, or other HTML/JS fragments
    Affected if The vagaro_code contains unescaped HTML tags, JavaScript event handlers, or script elements

You are affected if the Vagaro Booking Widget plugin version is 0.3 or lower AND the vagaro_code parameter is populated in your database with any user-supplied content that may contain unsanitized script tags or event handlers.
