Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires a TYPO3 installation with the Events 2 extension installed and the frontend event management feature enabled; default TYPO3 installations without this extension are not affected. Per the CVSS 4.0 vector (PR:L), the attacker must be authenticated as a frontend user holding an organizer role - unauthenticated users cannot trigger this flaw. The specific vulnerable code path is activated only when the event creation request includes an explicit organizer identifier; the default code path that assigns the submitting user's own organizer record is not exploitable. Deployments that restrict frontend event creation to a single trusted organizer account, or that route all event management through the TYPO3 backend rather than the frontend plugin, are not exploitable as a consequence of their configuration.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N) confirms a network-accessible attack with no special conditions, requiring only low privilege, yielding a 7.1 base score primarily driven by high vulnerable-system integrity impact (VI:H). No EPSS score was included in the available data, and this CVE is absent from CISA KEV with no public exploit code identified at time of analysis - these are meaningful gaps that prevent a complete probabilistic risk picture. The practical damage is bounded: an attacker cannot modify existing organizer records, escalate privileges, or affect system availability, limiting impact to unauthorized event attribution and associated reputational harm to the impersonated organizer. The low confidentiality component (VC:L) suggests incidental data exposure may accompany exploitation, but this is a secondary concern. For TYPO3 deployments hosting public event calendars where organizer identity and credibility are operationally significant, this authorization control failure warrants prompt patching despite the absence of active exploitation signals.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An authenticated TYPO3 frontend user holding any valid organizer role crafts an event creation POST request that specifies a different organizer's record identifier in the organizer field rather than their own. Because the server-side permission check validates only that the submitting user holds some organizer role - not that they own the specified organizer record - the event is created and publicly attributed to the victim organizer without their knowledge or consent. No public exploit code exists, but the attack requires only a valid organizer account and knowledge of another organizer's record identifier, both of which may be discoverable through normal use of the frontend interface.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 25, 2026

Unauthorized organizer attribution in the TYPO3 Events 2 frontend management extension allows any authenticated organizer-role user to create events falsely attributed to another organizer's record by supplying a foreign organizer identifier in the event creation request. The flaw stems from a permission check that validates only the presence of any organizer role rather than verifying the submitting user's ownership of the specific organizer referenced in the request. No public exploit has been identified and this vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV; however, the CVSS 4.0 score of 7.1 reflects a high integrity impact on the vulnerable system driven by straightforward, low-privilege network exploitation with no additional attack requirements.

RemediationAI

Apply the patched release of the Events 2 extension as directed by TYPO3 security advisory typo3-ext-sa-2026-026, available at https://typo3.org/security/advisory/typo3-ext-sa-2026-026; the exact fixed version number is not independently confirmable from the available data beyond the vendor advisory reference, so administrators should consult that advisory directly for the target upgrade version. If patching cannot be applied immediately, disabling the frontend event creation feature entirely is the most effective compensating control and carries no security side effects, though it will interrupt legitimate organizer self-service workflows. Alternatively, restricting frontend event submission access to a minimal, mutually trusted set of organizer accounts reduces exploitation surface at the cost of reduced operational flexibility. Administrators should audit recently created events to identify any attributed to organizers who did not author them, as part of incident scoping.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The Events 2 extension (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:typo3:extension_"events_2":*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is an optional frontend plugin for the TYPO3 content management system that allows organizer-role users to create and manage events through web forms without accessing the TYPO3 backend. The root cause is classified as CWE-915 (Improperly Controlled Modification of Dynamically-Determined Object Attributes), a mass-assignment or parameter-tampering class of flaw in which the application accepts a user-controlled parameter - the organizer record identifier - without enforcing object-level ownership. The plugin contains a logical split in its attribution logic: when no organizer is supplied, it defaults to the submitting user's own organizer record; when one is supplied, it is accepted with only a coarse role-presence check rather than an object-level authorization check confirming that the submitting user has rights over the specified organizer.

DescriptionCVE.org

The frontend management plugin attributed a newly created event to the submitting user's organizer record only when the request supplied no organizer of its own. The accompanying permission check confirmed only that the submitting user held any organizer role. A user with frontend event management access could therefore create an event that is attributed to another organizer.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

TYPO3 Events 2 extension permits authenticated organizers to create events falsely attributed to other organizers, directly undermining record integrity and event audit trails. Organizations using this extension face reputational risk and potential compliance violations due to manipulated event ownership records. Leadership should prioritize access restrictions and auditing until a vendor patch becomes available.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: restrict organizer-role accounts to trusted personnel only, implement approval-gate workflows for event creation requiring organizer verification, audit event logs regularly targeting cross-organizer attributions, and disable organizer self-service creation if operationally feasible pending patch deployment.
