PR:H reflects the administrator access required to store the malicious key; AC:H reflects the prerequisite of a PHP-uploadable file at a known path for full RCE escalation.

2DescriptionCVE.org
The Events Manager - Calendar, Bookings, Tickets, and more! plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 7.3.7.4 via the em_options_save function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary .php files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where .php file types can be uploaded and included. The stored traversal key is subsequently executed via an include_once() call that fires on every admin_init invocation - including unauthenticated admin-ajax.php requests - meaning once the malicious key is stored by an administrator, the inclusion is triggered without any further authentication or capability check.
AnalysisAI
Local File Inclusion in the Events Manager WordPress plugin (all versions through 7.3.7.4) allows an administrator-level attacker to store a malicious PHP file traversal path via the em_options_save function, which is then executed without any further authentication on every admin_init hook invocation - including unauthenticated admin-ajax.php requests. The two-phase attack converts a high-privilege write primitive into a persistent, unauthenticated code execution trigger that survives account remediation until the stored option is manually purged. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Phase 1 (planting) requires a WordPress account with administrator-level privileges or above to invoke the em_options_save function and store the malicious traversal path in the options table - this is a non-default condition requiring prior account compromise or a separate privilege escalation. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The provided CVSS 6.6 score (AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects the elevated privilege bar - administrator - required to plant the malicious option key, and AC:H captures the dependency on PHP file upload capability for full remote code execution. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Upgrade the Events Manager plugin to version 7.4 or later, as the SVN changeset (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?old_path=/events-manager/tags/7.3.7.4&new_path=/events-manager/tags/7.4) indicates the fix was introduced in that release; the exact patched version is inferred from the Trac diff path and should be confirmed against the WordPress plugin repository changelog before deployment. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
