CVE-2026-91109: CWE-639 Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key in croixhaug Simply Schedule Appointments
The Simply Schedule Appointments plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.12.31 via the 'complete_group' parameter due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to disclose every co-booker's private per-appointment id_token (exposed as public_token) alongside their PII (name and email address), then use each leaked token to read, overwrite arbitrary appointment meta on, or cancel the co-booker's appointment via the same REST controller. Exploitation requires the attacker to possess a valid id_token for any single appointment within the targeted group booking.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-91109 is an Insecure Direct Object Reference vulnerability (CWE-639) in the Simply Schedule Appointments WordPress plugin versions up to and including 1.6.12.31. The vulnerability arises from missing validation on the user-controlled 'complete_group' parameter, enabling authenticated attackers with subscriber-level privileges or higher to disclose private per-appointment tokens (id_token exposed as public_token) and personally identifiable information (name and email) of co-bookers. Attackers can then leverage these tokens to read, overwrite arbitrary appointment metadata, or cancel appointments via the same REST controller. Exploitation requires an attacker to have a valid id_token for any appointment within the targeted group booking.
Potential Impact
An attacker with subscriber-level access can disclose sensitive personal information of co-bookers, including names and email addresses, and manipulate or cancel their appointments. This compromises user privacy and appointment integrity but does not affect system availability or integrity beyond appointment data. The CVSS 3.1 score is 6.5 (medium severity), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no user interaction required.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or vendor advisory is provided in the input data. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict subscriber-level access to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity related to group bookings. Avoid sharing valid appointment tokens to reduce risk of exploitation.
