CVE-2026-14516
The Online Scheduling and Appointment Booking System – Bookly plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the 'staff_ids' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 27.5 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
Exploitation requires a two-request chain: an attacker first calls the unauthenticated bookly_get_form_id action to seed a booking session carrying malicious staff_ids values, then triggers bookly_render_time to cause the tainted array to reach the vulnerable query; CSRF/nonce validation is absent on both endpoints, meaning this chain can be initiated cross-site.

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1190Exploit Public-Facing Applicationinitial access95 % - Impacto principal
T1005Data from Local Systemcollection90 % - Impacto secundario
T1565.001Stored Data Manipulationimpact60 %
SQL Injection en parámetro desprotegido de plugin WordPress accesible sin autenticación (AV:N, PR:N) permite extraer datos sensibles de la BD. La manipulación (T1565.001) es secundaria: requeriría modificación deliberada del ataque.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
