Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires only that the target WordPress site have the My Calendar - Accessible Event Manager plugin installed and active at any version up to and including 3.7.8, with the request-handling code path that consumes the 'mc_auth' parameter reachable over the network. The CVSS vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, so there are no special conditions - remote unauthenticated exploitation works against default configurations of My Calendar; no login, no user interaction, and no non-default setting are needed. The primary limiting factors are simply that the plugin must be present and at a vulnerable version (≤3.7.8) and the parameter endpoint must not be blocked by an intervening WAF or access control; time-based blind extraction is also comparatively slow, which limits data-exfiltration speed but not feasibility.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, base 7.5) signals a genuinely low bar: network-reachable, low complexity, no privileges, no user interaction, with high confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability impact - consistent with a read-only data-extraction SQLi. This is a real triage priority for exposed WordPress sites: unauthenticated + automatable + a popular plugin is exactly the profile that gets mass-scanned once details circulate. That said, exploitation is not confirmed active: there is no CISA KEV listing and no public POC in the provided data, so this is potential rather than observed exploitation. No EPSS score was supplied, so probabilistic exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified here; the assessment rests on the CVSS profile and the intrinsic ease of automating blind SQLi. Note the confidentiality-only impact - an attacker reads data but does not directly gain write/RCE, so severity is high but not critical.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker scans the internet for WordPress sites running My Calendar ≤3.7.8 and, without any login, sends crafted requests supplying a time-based blind SQL payload in the 'mc_auth' parameter. By injecting conditional delay expressions and measuring response times, the attacker iteratively extracts administrator password hashes, session/auth secrets, and other sensitive rows from the WordPress database. No public POC is identified at time of analysis, but the attack is fully automatable with standard tooling such as sqlmap.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 08, 2026

Unauthenticated blind SQL injection in the My Calendar - Accessible Event Manager WordPress plugin (all versions through 3.7.8) lets remote attackers inject SQL through the 'mc_auth' parameter, enabling extraction of sensitive database contents such as user credentials and secret keys. The flaw stems from unescaped user input concatenated into an unprepared query, and being reachable without authentication makes it broadly exploitable on any site running a vulnerable version. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the technique (time-based blind extraction) is well understood and readily automatable.

RemediationAI

Upstream fix available (WordPress.org plugin changeset 3515996); a released patched version is not independently confirmed in the available data, but since all versions through 3.7.8 are affected the fix ships in the next release (expected 3.7.9 or later) - update My Calendar to the latest available version from the WordPress plugin repository and verify the running version is above 3.7.8. Review the Wordfence advisory (https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/aa1ed81c-04cb-4ccd-8c30-b1d943730909?source=cve) and the code change (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3515996/my-calendar) before deploying. If immediate patching is not possible, deploy a WAF rule to block SQLi patterns targeting the 'mc_auth' request parameter (side effect: pattern-based rules can be bypassed and may cause false positives on legitimate values), restrict access to the vulnerable endpoint at the web-server or firewall level where feasible, and consider temporarily deactivating the plugin if the calendar functionality is non-essential (side effect: removes event-management features and any front-end calendars from the site).

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected component is My Calendar (vendor slug joedolson), a widely used WordPress event-management plugin (CPE cpe:2.3:a:joedolson:my_calendar_-_accessible_event_manager). The root cause is CWE-89 (SQL Injection): the plugin passes the 'mc_auth' request parameter into an existing SQL statement without applying WordPress's $wpdb->prepare() placeholders and without escaping, so attacker-controlled text becomes part of the query string. Because the injection is 'time-based blind', the query returns no direct data - the attacker infers results one bit at a time by injecting conditional SLEEP()/delay expressions and measuring server response latency, which works even when the endpoint suppresses errors and echoes no query output.

DescriptionCVE.org

The My Calendar - Accessible Event Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based blind SQL Injection via the 'mc_auth' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.7.8 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

The My Calendar - Accessible Event Manager WordPress plugin (versions ≤3.7.8) contains an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability enabling attackers to extract user credentials and security keys from the database without any authentication or user interaction. Organizations running this plugin face immediate risk of credential compromise and unauthorized access to sensitive configuration data.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Disable or completely remove the plugin; (2) Deploy Web Application Firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns in the 'mc_auth' parameter; (3) Apply least-privilege database user permissions for the WordPress account; (4) Implement database activity monitoring and alerting on time-based query patterns; (5) Isolate WordPress infrastructure network access to reduce lateral movement if credentials are compromised.
