CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe Events Calendar plugin for WordPress prior to version 6.16.5.1 is vulnerable due to a lack of authorization checks on its Event Aggregator import REST API routes, enabling unauthenticated attackers to manipulate import records and inject arbitrary content into hidden comments. This could lead to data integrity issues and potential exploitation of the affected site. WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate these risks.
Original NVD Description
The Events Calendar WordPress plugin before 6.16.5.1 does not perform an authorization check on one of its Event Aggregator import REST API routes and skips an integrity check for a particular status value, allowing unauthenticated attackers to mark existing import records as failed and to store arbitrary content in a hidden comment record.
