At a glance

CVE-2026-13145 is a medium-severity Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key vulnerability in the WP Travel WordPress plugin, affecting versions < 11.8.1. It carries a CVSS score of 4.3 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity). Exploitation requires an authenticated account at Subscriber level or above. The issue is fixed in version 11.8.1; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed July 2026, reported by Revanth Hari Narayana Matte.

Vulnerability Overview

The WP Travel – Ultimate Travel Booking System, Tour Management Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in versions up to 11.8.1 due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to perform an unauthorized action.

Technical Analysis

The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no interaction from a victim user.

CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key

Reaching this weakness in WP Travel < 11.8.1 takes an account at Subscriber level or above. Authorization bypass through a user-controlled key, often called insecure direct object reference, means the application looks up a record by an identifier from the request without checking that the caller owns it.

Changing a number in the request is enough to read or modify other users' records, which on commerce and membership sites means customer data. For WP Travel the fix is 11.8.1: builds < 11.8.1 are affected, anything from 11.8.1 onward is not.

Remediation

Update to version 11.8.1, or a newer patched version

How WordSec helps

Because it turns on account access, WordSec's login security is the relevant layer: role-based two-factor, captcha and brute-force limits raise the cost of getting the account this needs. None of that substitutes for the fix: WP Travel 11.8.1 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
