Published Sep 23, 2026 · Updated Sep 23, 2026 · Assigned by WPScan

Description

The Events Calendar WordPress plugin before 6.17.5 does not check the capability required to publish content before creating or updating it through its REST API, allowing users with a role that cannot normally publish, such as contributor, to publish content directly and bypass editorial review.
