Joomla Extension - joomlaeventmanager.net - Cross-user event and venue takeover through forged form fields in Joomla Event Manager < 5.0.1 - A registered user with edit-own rights (the eventowner=1 setting or core.edit.own) can POST another user's record id together with their own id as created_by and take over that record.
AnalysisAI
Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) in Joomla Event Manager before version 5.0.1 allows authenticated event-owner users to take over events and venues belonging to other users by manipulating form fields in POST requests. Any registered user holding the eventowner=1 role or core.edit.own ACL permission can forge the record ID and created_by fields to reassign another user's event or venue record to themselves. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to hold a valid registered-user account on the target Joomla site AND have been granted either the eventowner=1 extension-specific setting or the core.edit.own Joomla ACL permission for the Event Manager component - this is not a default anonymous or unauthenticated attack. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector provided by the vendor scores this at 5.1 with PR:H, AV:N, AC:L, VI:L - a medium-severity issue with limited integrity impact and no confidentiality or availability consequences. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An authenticated event organizer on a multi-user Joomla site with Joomla Event Manager installed identifies a target event or venue record ID by browsing the public event listing or enumerating IDs. The attacker crafts a POST request to the event edit endpoint, substituting the target record's ID in the form while setting created_by to their own user ID, causing the application to reassign ownership of the victim's event to the attacker. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade Joomla Event Manager to version 5.0.1 or later, which is the vendor-indicated fix version per the CVE description. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
