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 Bookero.pl – system rezerwacji online plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `bookero_products` shortcode's `hide_products` (and `filter_products`) attributes in versions up to and including 2.2. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the `bookero_products()` function — the raw attribute value is concatenated directly into an inline `<script>` block without any escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the 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 Bookero.pl WordPress plugin versions up to 2.2 contains a stored XSS vulnerability in the bookero_products shortcode. The hide_products and filter_products attributes are not sanitized on input and are directly concatenated into an inline <script> block without output escaping, allowing authenticated contributor+ users to inject arbitrary JavaScript.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of the plugin that properly sanitizes shortcode attributes on input and escapes output when constructing inline scripts. If no patch exists, implement output escaping using wp_json_encode() or similar when inserting values into JavaScript context.

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 Bookero plugin installation
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and locate Bookero.pl. Note the version number displayed under the plugin name.
    Affected if The plugin is installed and the version is 2.2 or lower
  2. Check for shortcode usage
    Search your WordPress database or content pages for the [bookero_products] shortcode. Use phpMyAdmin or WP CLI: wp shortcode list --format=count or search post_content in wp_posts table for 'bookero_products'.
    Affected if The shortcode is present in any post, page, or widget content
  3. Identify vulnerable attributes in use
    Examine posts containing [bookero_products] and check if hide_products or filter_products attributes are present, for example: [bookero_products hide_products="..."].
    Affected if Either hide_products or filter_products attributes are used with any value in the shortcode
  4. Review contributor role access
    In WordPress admin, go to Users > Users and note which users have Contributor, Author, Editor, or Administrator roles. Contributors and above can create content with shortcodes.
    Affected if There are users with Contributor, Author, or higher roles who can create or edit content
  5. Confirm script output context
    View the source HTML of a page containing the bookero_products shortcode. Look for inline <script> tags where shortcode attribute values appear unescaped.
    Affected if The shortcode outputs inline JavaScript with raw values from hide_products or filter_products attributes visible in the HTML source

You are affected if the Bookero plugin version is 2.2 or lower, the bookero_products shortcode with hide_products or filter_products attributes is in use, and users with Contributor or higher roles exist on the site.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Upgrade to a patched version of the plugin that properly sanitizes shortcode attributes on input and escapes output when constructing inline scripts. If no patch exists, implement output escaping using wp_json_encode() or similar when inserting values into JavaScript context.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Latest version available in the WordPress plugin repository (newer than 2.2)

  1. Navigate to the WordPress admin dashboard
  2. Go to Plugins > Installed Plugins
  3. Locate the 'Bookero.pl – system rezerwacji online' plugin
  4. Check if an update is available and upgrade to the latest version (newer than 2.2)
  5. Verify the update was successful by checking the plugin version
