DescriptionCVE.org

The The Events Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘data-date-*’ parameters in all versions up to, and including, 6.13.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Analysis

Technical ContextAI

Cross-site scripting (XSS) allows injection of client-side scripts into web pages viewed by other users due to insufficient output encoding.

RemediationAI

A vendor patch is available — apply it immediately. Encode all user-supplied output contextually (HTML, JS, URL). Implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers. Use HTTPOnly and Secure cookie flags.
