CVE-2026-12128: CWE-20 Improper Input Validation in dotonpaper Pinpoint Booking System – Version 2
The Pinpoint Booking System – Version 2 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Price Manipulation via the `cart_data` parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.9.6.8. This is due to the `dopbsp_woocommerce_add_to_cart` AJAX action being registered via `wp_ajax_nopriv_*` with no authentication, no nonce verification, and no server-side recalculation of pricing — the `update` handler reads `price_total` directly from the attacker-controlled `cart_data` POST parameter and persists it to the database via `$wpdb->insert()` without validating it against the calendar's configured pricing. The `woocommerce_before_calculate_totals` callback subsequently reads the stored attacker-supplied value back from the database and passes it directly to `$product->set_price()` without recomputing from calendar settings. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to override the WooCommerce checkout price of any bookable product tied to a booking calendar to an arbitrary value, effectively enabling the purchase of any such product at a self-chosen price.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-12128 describes an improper input validation vulnerability (CWE-20) in the Pinpoint Booking System – Version 2 WordPress plugin. The vulnerability arises from the `dopbsp_woocommerce_add_to_cart` AJAX action being registered without authentication or nonce verification, allowing unauthenticated attackers to send malicious `cart_data` POST parameters. The plugin reads the `price_total` value directly from this attacker-controlled input and inserts it into the database without validating it against the calendar's configured pricing. Later, during the WooCommerce checkout process, the stored attacker-supplied price is used directly to set the product price without recalculation, enabling price manipulation and purchase of products at arbitrary prices.
Potential Impact
An unauthenticated attacker can override the checkout price of any bookable product linked to the booking calendar to an arbitrary value. This compromises the integrity of pricing, potentially allowing attackers to purchase products at significantly reduced or zero cost. The vulnerability affects the integrity of the e-commerce transaction but does not impact confidentiality or availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, users should consider disabling the affected AJAX action or restricting access to it via custom authentication or nonce verification. Monitoring for unusual pricing activity may help detect exploitation attempts.
