CVE-2026-6960

The BookingPress Pro WordPress plugin allows unauthenticated users to upload any file because it does not validate the file type. This flaw exists in all versions up to 5.6 and can let an attacker place malicious files on the server, potentially running code. The issue only works if a signature custom field is added to the booking form.
