Executive Summary

The Events Manager WordPress plugin before version 7.4.5 has a flaw where authenticated users with subscriber-level access or higher can manipulate the 'owner' parameter to view unpublished, pending, or trashed events and locations belonging to other users. This exposes sensitive details like full street addresses.

Detection Guidance

Check the installed version of the Events Manager plugin. If it is between 7.4.1 and 7.4.4, the system is vulnerable. Use WordPress admin dashboard or run: wp plugin list | grep events-manager in the WordPress root directory.

Impact Analysis

If you use the Events Manager plugin versions 7.4.1 to 7.4.4, an attacker with low privileges could access private event and location data, including addresses, of other users. This could lead to unauthorized data exposure or misuse of sensitive information.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could violate data protection regulations like GDPR or HIPAA by exposing personally identifiable information (PII) or sensitive location data without authorization. Organizations may face compliance penalties or legal consequences if such data breaches occur.

Mitigation Strategies

Update the Events Manager plugin to version 7.4.5 or later immediately. If updating is not possible, consider disabling the plugin temporarily until the update is applied.
