MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | The affected component is the Arraytics WP Event Solution WordPress plugin at any version up to and including 4.1.25; the site must have this plugin installed and active for exploitation. Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), no authentication, no user interaction, and no special non-default configuration are required - exploitation works against standard installations reachable over the network. The primary limiting factors are therefore the narrow blast radius (integrity-only impact: C:N/I:L/A:N, so no data disclosure or denial of service) and the requirement that the specific vulnerable plugin feature/endpoint be present in the installed version (≤4.1.25). Upgrading beyond the last affected version removes the exposure. |
| Impact | This is a genuinely moderate-priority issue, not a false alarm, but also not an emergency. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw requiring no authentication or user interaction, which maps to the CWE-862 Missing Authorization weakness (broken access control) reported by Patchstack. However, the impact is deliberately narrow: C:N/I:L/A:N means no confidentiality or availability loss and only limited integrity impact, which is why the score lands at 5.3 (Medium) rather than critical. No EPSS score, CISA KEV listing, or public POC was provided in the input, so exploitation likelihood signals are absent - this should be read as 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis,' NOT as evidence of safety. The SSVC framework cannot be fully evaluated because exploitation status and automatability are not supplied. Net assessment: a real unauthenticated access-control gap worth patching, but the limited (integrity-only) impact and lack of exploitation evidence place it below actively-exploited or data-exposure flaws in triage. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A remote, unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted HTTP request directly to a WP Event Solution plugin endpoint that fails to enforce an authorization/capability check, allowing them to invoke a privileged action and modify plugin-managed data (e.g., event records or settings) without logging in. Because CVSS shows AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, no credentials, special timing, or victim interaction are needed. No public proof-of-concept was identified in the provided data. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 05, 2026
Missing authorization in the Arraytics WP Event Solution WordPress plugin (all versions through 4.1.25) allows remote attackers to invoke functionality that should be restricted to privileged users, with the CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N indicating no authentication, no user interaction, and no non-default configuration are needed against a site that has the plugin installed and active. Impact is limited to integrity (C:N/I:L/A:N), so affected installations face unauthorized modification or creation of plugin-managed content rather than data disclosure or denial of service. The issue is rated moderate (CVSS 5.3) and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis: the available input lists 4.1.25 as the affected boundary with no fixed version published, so the first action is to monitor the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/wp-event-solution/vulnerability/wordpress-wp-event-solution-plugin-4-1-25-broken-access-control-vulnerability?_s_id=cve and the plugin's WordPress.org update channel, and to upgrade to the first release above 4.1.25 as soon as it ships. Until then, the most effective compensating control is to deactivate the WP Event Solution plugin entirely if its event functionality is not required, which removes the exposed endpoint at the cost of losing that site feature. If the plugin must stay live, restrict reachability of its AJAX/REST/admin-post endpoints to trusted networks or authenticated sessions at the reverse proxy or WAF layer (for example, blocking unauthenticated POST requests to plugin-specific paths), accepting that legitimate public-facing event interactions may break and that such rules require maintenance; also review recent site content for unauthorized changes given the integrity-only impact, and consider a virtual patch rule that rejects requests lacking a valid WordPress authentication cookie for the affected handler. Note that rate limiting or CAPTCHA does not address this class of flaw, since a single well-formed request is sufficient, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, so exploitation attempts would currently be effort-driven rather than automated.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The root cause is CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) in a WordPress plugin maintained by Arraytics, reported through Patchstack and tagged as an authentication bypass/broken access control issue. WordPress plugins typically expose privileged operations through AJAX handlers (wp_ajax_*), REST API routes, or admin-post.php actions; when such endpoints omit capability checks such as current_user_can() or fail to validate a nonce, an unauthenticated HTTP request can execute operations that the developer intended only for administrators or event organizers. The provided CPE, cpe:2.3:a:arraytics:wp_event_solution:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, is version-agnostic, matching the vendor's statement that the issue affects all releases from n/a through 4.1.25, i.e. the entire current branch rather than a single build. Because the assessed vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N, the vulnerable endpoint is reachable over the network with a single low-complexity request, but the consequence is confined to unauthorized integrity changes within the plugin's own data scope, which limits the severity relative to access-control flaws that also leak data or permit code execution.
