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 JetBooking plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'check_in_date' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.3. This is 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.

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 JetBooking WordPress plugin versions up to 4.0.3 contain a SQL Injection vulnerability in the 'check_in_date' parameter. The plugin fails to properly escape user-supplied input and does not use prepared statements, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary SQL queries and potentially extract sensitive data from the database.

MitigationUpdate to the latest version of JetBooking when available. Until a patch is released, consider deploying a WAF rule to filter or block malicious SQL characters in the check_in_date parameter.

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 JetBooking plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for JetBooking in the list, or check the /wp-content/plugins/ directory for the jetbooking folder
    Affected if JetBooking plugin is present on the WordPress site
  2. Check installed JetBooking version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins, find JetBooking, and view the version number displayed under the plugin name. Alternatively, check the main plugin file header in /wp-content/plugins/jetbooking/includes or similar main file
    Affected if Version is 4.0.3 or lower (any version up to and including 4.0.3)
  3. Verify booking functionality is accessible
    Identify if the booking calendar or check-in date form is exposed on the site, typically on a front-end booking page, accommodation search, or availability check widget. Visit pages where JetBooking booking forms are rendered
    Affected if The check_in_date parameter is accepted via HTTP request (GET or POST) on any public booking-related page
  4. Confirm plugin is active
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and verify JetBooking shows as 'Active' rather than 'Inactive' or 'Network Active'
    Affected if Plugin status is Active and the booking feature is publicly accessible

If JetBooking version 4.0.3 or lower is installed and active, and the booking check-in date feature is exposed on the site, the environment is affected by this SQL Injection vulnerability.
