|
| Exploitation Conditions | The plugin must be installed and activated on a WordPress site with default network accessibility. An unprotected endpoint or REST API route that returns sensitive data without proper capability checks or authentication must be publicly accessible. No special WordPress configuration, user interaction, or authentication is required to trigger the vulnerability; any visitor capable of reaching the WordPress site can exploit it. |
| Impact | Despite a moderate CVSS score of 5.3 (reflecting network accessibility and low attack complexity), multiple signals indicate low real-world exploitability. The EPSS score of 0.02% (5th percentile) suggests minimal economic incentive or proven exploitation patterns in the wild. The vulnerability requires no authentication (PR:N) but only discloses information (C:L; no integrity or availability impact), limiting an attacker's ability to pivot to higher-impact attacks. No CISA KEV status or public exploit code is referenced, indicating this is a low-priority disclosure without active weaponization. The attack vector is network-based with low complexity, making it theoretically accessible, but the information exposure alone does not enable immediate system compromise. Organizations should prioritize patching only if sensitive data exposure correlates with business risk (e.g., exposure of user PII or API keys in RSVP data). |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated remote attacker sends an HTTP request to an unprotected endpoint in the RSVP and Event Management plugin to retrieve embedded sensitive data such as event details, attendee information, or internal configuration metadata. The attacker requires no special privileges or user interaction and can automate this data collection across multiple targets to build a profile of vulnerable WordPress sites and harvest exposed information. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 15, 2026
Information disclosure in WP Chill RSVP and Event Management plugin versions up to 2.7.16 exposes sensitive system data to unauthenticated remote attackers via unprotected endpoints. The vulnerability allows retrieval of embedded sensitive information without authentication or user interaction, affecting WordPress sites using the affected plugin versions. With EPSS scoring of 0.02% and no public exploit code identified, real-world exploitation risk is minimal despite the network-accessible attack vector.
RemediationAI
Update WP Chill RSVP and Event Management plugin to a version newer than 2.7.16; consult the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/rsvp/vulnerability/wordpress-rsvp-and-event-management-plugin-2-7-16-sensitive-data-exposure-vulnerability?_s_id=cve for the specific patched version release. If an immediate update is not feasible, disable the plugin or restrict network access to affected endpoints via Web Application Firewall rules until a patch is available. WordPress administrators should verify that any sensitive data (such as user attendee lists or event metadata) exposed through the plugin has not been compromised.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability stems from improper access controls on sensitive data endpoints within the RSVP and Event Management WordPress plugin. CWE-497 (Exposure of Sensitive System Information to an Unauthorized Control Sphere) indicates the plugin fails to properly restrict access to protected resources, allowing unauthenticated actors to query endpoints that return sensitive system or application metadata. This is a common pattern in WordPress plugins where REST API endpoints or internal AJAX handlers lack proper capability checks, permission verification, or nonce validation. The affected product (cpe:2.3:a:wp_chill:rsvp_and_event_management:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is a WordPress plugin distributed via the WordPress plugin repository.
