What is CVE-2026-11823?
CVE-2026-11823 is a high-severity SQL injection vulnerability in Repute Infosystems BookingPress Appointment Booking Pro, published on 1 Jul 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Official description
The BookingPress Appointment Booking Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'store_service_date' parameter of the bpa_assign_staffmember_to_slots() function in versions up to and including 5.7.1. This is due to the explicit use of stripslashes_deep() on user-supplied POST data before it is interpolated verbatim into a SQL LIKE clause without use of $wpdb->prepare() or any parameterization. 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.
Weakness: CWE-89
