AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 29, 2026

Unauthenticated attendee PII exposure in Hi.Events through 1.9.0 lets remote attackers retrieve full attendee lists — including names, emails, and personal information — by hitting the public check-in list endpoints, which treat the check-in list's short_id as the only access control. Beyond reading data, an attacker who knows or guesses a short_id can also create and delete check-in records without authentication. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; the issue was reported by VulnCheck and is tracked via an upstream GitHub fix.

DescriptionCVE.org

Hi.Events through 1.9.0 public check-in list endpoints use short_id as sole access control, allowing unauthenticated access to retrieve full attendee lists including emails and personal information. Attackers with knowledge of the short_id can call GET /api/public/check-in-lists/{short_id}/attendees to read attendee data and create or delete check-in records without authentication.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Hi.Events event management platform through version 1.9.0 contains an authentication bypass allowing attackers to access and modify complete attendee rosters including names, emails, and personal contact information. Organizations using Hi.Events for event management face regulatory exposure under privacy laws (GDPR, CCPA) and reputational damage from unpatched PII leakage. Containment and platform alternatives must be evaluated immediately given the absence of a vendor patch.

Recommended Action

Within 24 hours: Inventory all Hi.Events installations and confirm versions ≤1.9.0; restrict network access to check-in list endpoints using firewall rules; enable audit logging if available. Within 7 days: Evaluate migration to alternative event management platforms (e.g., Splash, Lunchbox, or similar); implement IP whitelisting and API rate-limiting on check-in endpoints; conduct preliminary attendee notification assessment. Within 30 days: Complete migration to patched or alternative platform, or deploy compensating controls; notify affected attendees if access was confirmed.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: Implement network-layer access controls (firewall, API gateway) restricting check-in endpoints to authorized networks only; deploy IP whitelisting on all check-in URLs; place authentication proxy in front of Hi.Events; enable request rate-limiting and anomaly detection; implement comprehensive audit logging for all check-in endpoint access; consider disabling public check-in functionality until patched or platform is replaced.

What every action level means
Emergency Immediate action required. Criteria: CRITICAL + in CISA KEV (actively exploited) without patch, OR CRITICAL + EPSS > 30% without patch, OR CRITICAL + active threat signals without patch.
Act Now Prioritize within 24-48h. Criteria: in KEV with patch available, OR CRITICAL + public POC, OR HIGH + EPSS > 10%, OR CRITICAL + active threat, OR any CRITICAL severity.
This Week Schedule remediation this week. Criteria: HIGH severity (CVSS 7.0-8.9). Patch within normal change window.
This Month Plan within 30 days. Criteria: MEDIUM severity (CVSS 4.0-6.9), lower exploitation probability. Include in regular patch cycle.
Monitor Track and reassess. Criteria: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9), minimal exploitation risk. No immediate action needed.
