CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe Events Manager plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping of event attribute values. This vulnerability allows authenticated users with Author-level access or unauthenticated users (if anonymous submissions are enabled) to inject malicious scripts that execute when other users view the event page. WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize remediation to protect against potential exploitation.
Original NVD Description
The Events Manager - Calendar, Bookings, Tickets, and more! plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via event attribute values in all versions up to, and including, 7.3.3. This is due to insufficient input sanitization when storing attribute values (using only `wp_unslash()` without sanitization) and lack of output escaping when rendering the '#_ATT{key}' placeholder. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, or unauthenticated attackers when anonymous event submissions are enabled, to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when any user views the affected event page.
