DescriptionCVE.org

The Events Calendar WordPress plugin before 6.17.5.1 does not validate or sanitise data submitted to an unauthenticated AJAX action before merging it into its rendering context, allowing unauthenticated users to execute arbitrary shortcodes registered on the site.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated shortcode injection in The Events Calendar WordPress plugin before 6.17.5.1 allows remote attackers to trigger any shortcode registered on a target site by submitting crafted data to an AJAX action that is merged into the rendering context without validation or sanitisation. No authentication, user interaction, or special configuration is required on default installs, but practical impact is limited to the set of shortcodes actually registered by WordPress core, the active theme, or installed plugins, and the assessed CVSS vector shows no availability impact and only low confidentiality and integrity impact. …
