Technical details

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability exists in Simply Schedule Appointments plugin versions up to 1.6.12.23 that fails to properly validate or sanitize request origins before executing sensitive actions. The vulnerability requires no authentication to initiate but does require user interaction—specifically, a logged-in user (such as a site administrator) must be tricked into visiting a malicious webpage or clicking a crafted link. An attacker can exploit this to perform arbitrary actions within the plugin's scope, such as modifying appointments or settings. The vulnerability was patched in version 1.6.12.24.
