Vulnerability Overview

The VikBooking Hotel Booking Engine & PMS plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.7 via the option endpoint due to missing validation on the 'task' user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to view menus they shouldn't have access to.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.6.8, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key) The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
