Upstream source description

The WPCafe WordPress plugin before 3.0.18 does not perform an authorization check when creating a reservation through its REST API, verifying only a publicly available nonce, allowing unauthenticated users to submit reservations with an arbitrary approval status and bypass the administrator moderation workflow.
