Vulnerability Overview

The Event Manager and Tickets Selling Plugin for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary settings reset via the mep_wl_ajax_license_activate and mep_wl_ajax_license_deactivate functions in versions before 3.5.3. This is due to a missing capabilities check on these functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to arbitrarily modify plugin settings.
