On my RV130W I have two VLANs set up:
VLAN1:
VLAN100:
Inter-VLAN Routing is NOT enabled:
Why then am I able to ping hosts in a different VLAN?
Does this require a bug fix?

just a thought to see if its a feature or a bug
I wonder if the feature is only related to vlan's other than vlan 1
If you create vlan 200 - 192.168.200.254
can a client on vlan 100 ping a client on vlan 200 and vice versa

I put my theory to the test and it worked as I thought
which is that vlan 101 could get to vlan 102 and vice versa
but vlan 1 could get to either and vice versa
I take it that this is probably due to how the router os is setup and hardware options on it
based on that there is probably only a couple of real interfaces
and that the vlan 1 is assigned to the one of them or to the switch interface
and the other vlans are just attached to it,
vlan 1 has to be able to cross communicate due to my guess that there aren't enough real interfaces
in that vlan is the end gateway and the other vlans are just virtual gateways if you will
This is what I did with the ports
In my lab I actually don't assign vlan 1 to any ports at all, nothing is on it except that actual router
but I left it on a port for you to see, as it might be handy to connect to in worst case scenarios
which works because of routing
as to whether its a feature or a bug or a limitation is hard to say without more info from cisco
