Description

The Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via multiple Elementor widgets in versions up to and including 2.4.9. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the 'load_manually' parameter in the render() methods of classes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above who can use Elementor, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The vulnerability was partially patched in version 2.4.8.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-10148 describes a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar WordPress plugin affecting versions up to and including 2.4.9. The flaw is due to improper sanitization and escaping of the 'load_manually' parameter in multiple Elementor widget render() methods. Authenticated attackers with Contributor-level or higher privileges who can use Elementor can inject malicious scripts that persist and execute on page load. The vulnerability was partially addressed in version 2.4.8 but remains exploitable through version 2.4.9.

Potential Impact

An attacker with Contributor-level access or higher who can use Elementor can inject persistent malicious scripts into pages via the vulnerable parameter. This can lead to execution of arbitrary scripts in the context of users visiting the injected pages, potentially compromising user data confidentiality and integrity. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.4 (medium severity), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, and privileges required.

Mitigation Recommendations

A partial patch was introduced in version 2.4.8; however, versions up to and including 2.4.9 remain vulnerable. Users should upgrade to a version later than 2.4.9 once available. Until then, restrict Contributor-level access and Elementor usage to trusted users only. Monitor vendor advisories for official fixes and apply them promptly when released. Patch status is not yet confirmed as fully fixed; check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance.
