| Impact | Although no CVSS vector or EPSS score has been published, the combination of available signals presents a moderate-to-high real-world risk. Stored XSS vulnerabilities typically carry CVSS base scores of 6.1 to 8.8 depending on attack vector (network vs. adjacent network), required privileges (none vs. low), and user interaction (required vs. not required). The plugin's widespread use in WordPress environments and its focus on public-facing event calendars suggest a network attack vector with minimal complexity and no privilege requirements, implying higher exploitability. The absence of KEV designation does not diminish risk—it indicates either recent disclosure or low public exploit availability rather than low technical merit. The lack of a published POC may reflect responsible disclosure practices rather than exploit difficulty. Organizations should treat this as a priority vulnerability pending vendor patch confirmation, particularly if the plugin is exposed on public-facing websites. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with access to create or edit calendar events (either through a public submission form if enabled, or by compromising a low-privilege WordPress account) injects a malicious JavaScript payload into an event title or description field. When administrators or site visitors view the calendar, the stored XSS payload executes in their browsers, allowing the attacker to steal WordPress authentication cookies, redirect administrators to a credential harvesting page, or inject a malware redirect into the calendar widget. The attack is particularly effective because calendar pages are often trusted by site administrators and may be accessed frequently, maximizing exposure. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 25, 2026
A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the CodePeople CP Multi View Event Calendar WordPress plugin through version 1.4.35, allowing authenticated or unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious JavaScript that persists in the database and executes in the browsers of site visitors. This CWE-79 vulnerability enables attackers to steal session cookies, redirect users to malicious sites, or perform actions on behalf of administrators. While no CVSS score or EPSS data are currently published and the vulnerability has not been designated as actively exploited in CISA's KEV catalog, the nature of stored XSS combined with the plugin's event calendar functionality-which typically accepts user input for event creation and editing-indicates a credible attack surface.

RemediationAI
Immediately upgrade the CP Multi View Event Calendar plugin to a version newer than 1.4.35; check the Patchstack advisory and the plugin's official WordPress.org repository for the patched version release. If immediate patching is not feasible, disable the plugin temporarily or restrict access to the calendar functionality via WordPress user role permissions until a patch is deployed. As an additional layer of defense, implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to block common XSS payload patterns in POST requests to the plugin's calendar endpoints, and ensure all WordPress user accounts enforce strong passwords to prevent account takeover attacks. Monitor the Patchstack database (https://patchstack.com/) for the release announcement of a patched version specific to this CVE.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of user-supplied input during web page generation, classified under CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation). The CP Multi View Event Calendar plugin (identified via CPE cpe:2.3:a:codepeople:cp_multi_view_event_calendar:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is a WordPress plugin that handles event calendar functionality, likely processing event titles, descriptions, and metadata without sufficient input validation or output encoding. The stored nature of this XSS indicates the malicious payload is retained in the WordPress database, making it a persistent threat that affects all users viewing the calendar rather than just a single victim. This distinguishes it from reflected XSS and increases its severity in multi-user WordPress environments.
