Description

Almost a year after the founding of the M0nt3C4rl0 team, we want to share a moment of triumph in our cybersecurity journey: the discovery and reporting of our first CVE on WordPress.

The Bus Ticket Booking with Seat Reservation plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'tab_date' and 'tab_date_r' parameters in versions up to, and including, 5.2.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
