Vulnerability Overview

The Calendar Event Multi View plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on event creation and deletion in versions up to, and including, 1.4.06 . This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to manipulate events. Additionally, some of the event fields do not undergo proper sanitization leading to the potential of Stored Cross-Site Scripting.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.4.07, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')) The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
