Executive Summary

This vulnerability is an authorization bypass in the Events Manager WordPress plugin. It allows unauthenticated attackers to view event and location details that administrators have marked as draft, pending, trashed, or private. The issue occurs because the plugin fails to properly verify user authorization before allowing access to these restricted items.

Detection Guidance

Check WordPress plugin versions for Events Manager up to 7.4.0. Review event and location visibility settings for unauthorized access to draft, pending, trashed, or private entries.

Impact Analysis

If you use this plugin, attackers could access sensitive event information that was intended to be private. This includes event titles, dates, descriptions, and locations. The impact is limited to information disclosure, as the vulnerability does not allow modification or deletion of data.
