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 LatePoint – Calendar Booking Plugin for Appointments and Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'booking_form_page_url' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.5.0 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. The malicious activity log entry is written to the database even when Stripe is not configured, because the latepoint_order_intent_created action hook fires before the Stripe Connect account ID is validated, meaning a fully functional Stripe integration is not required for exploitation.

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 LatePoint WordPress plugin fails to sanitize the 'booking_form_page_url' parameter and escape it on output, allowing stored XSS injection. Additionally, the plugin writes malicious activity log entries before validating the Stripe Connect account ID, meaning exploitation requires no Stripe configuration and can be triggered by unauthenticated users.

MitigationApply vendor patch when available; until then, consider restricting the plugin or adding WAF rules to block requests with suspicious 'booking_form_page_url' values.

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 LatePoint plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and verify the LatePoint plugin is present and active
    Affected if LatePoint plugin is installed and active
  2. Identify installed LatePoint version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins, find LatePoint, and note the version number displayed
    Affected if Version is unpatched (no fixed version specified in CVE; compare against vendor advisories)
  3. Verify booking form functionality is exposed
    Check if the WordPress site has booking forms publicly accessible (look for frontend booking pages or shortcodes like [latepoint_booking_form])
    Affected if Booking form pages are publicly accessible without authentication
  4. Inspect request handling for booking_form_page_url
    Submit a test booking form submission with a crafted booking_form_page_url parameter containing a benign test payload (e.g., <script>alert(1)</script>) and verify it gets stored in the database without sanitization
    Affected if The parameter value is stored and displayed without HTML encoding/sanitization in admin logs or frontend output

A user is affected if LatePoint plugin is installed, the booking form is publicly accessible, and the booking_form_page_url parameter accepts and stores unsanitized input that gets rendered without escaping
