AI-suggested

Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the vulnerable REST API endpoint by disabling or limiting the WP Travel Pro plugin's REST API functionality or applying custom access controls to prevent unauthenticated user deletion requests.

Description

The WP Travel Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary user deletion via the /wp-json/wp-travel/v1/travel-guide/{user_id} REST API endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 10.6.0. This is due to the check_permission() callback unconditionally returning true and the Database::delete() method passing the user ID directly to wp_delete_user() without any role validation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary user accounts, including those of administrators.
