CVE-2026-116751

The Booking for Appointments and Events Calendar – Amelia Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the 'tag[] (array KEYS)' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 9.9.1 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. WordPress's wp_magic_quotes escapes array values but not array keys, meaning attacker-controlled tag[] array keys reach EventRepository::getFilteredIds() completely unescaped and can be crafted to defeat the plugin's Statement::execute placeholder binder via overlapping strtr() substitution keys.

Affected products and versions

NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.

Remediation & validation

  1. Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
  2. Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
  3. Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
  4. Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.

No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
