Vendor/Project: melograno
Product: Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar – Amelia

Description

The Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar plugin for WordPress (Amelia) contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in versions up to and including 2.4.9. This vulnerability arises from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of the 'load_manually' parameter in multiple Elementor widgets' render methods. Authenticated users with Contributor-level access or higher who can use Elementor can inject arbitrary scripts that execute when any user accesses the affected page. A partial patch was introduced in version 2.4.8, but versions through 2.4.9 remain vulnerable.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-10148 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar plugin for WordPress (Amelia). It affects versions from initial releases up to and including 2.4.9. The vulnerability is due to improper neutralization of input in the 'load_manually' parameter used in Elementor widgets' render() methods, allowing authenticated users with Contributor or higher privileges to inject malicious scripts that execute on page load. Although a partial fix was applied in version 2.4.8, the vulnerability persists through 2.4.9.

Potential Impact

An attacker with Contributor-level access or higher who can use Elementor can inject malicious scripts into pages. These scripts execute in the context of any user visiting the injected page, potentially leading to session hijacking, privilege escalation, or other client-side attacks. The vulnerability does not require user interaction beyond visiting the compromised page and does not affect availability.

Mitigation Recommendations

No explicit patch link or full fix is provided in the input data. The vulnerability was partially patched in version 2.4.8, but versions up to 2.4.9 remain vulnerable. Users should upgrade to a version later than 2.4.9 once available or consult the vendor for an official fix. Until then, restrict Contributor-level access and Elementor usage to trusted users only. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance.
