  • Aug 13, 2026Prevent Direct Access – Protect WordPress Files: Unauthorized access of protected filesCVE-2026-3835 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 5.3

    The Prevent Direct Access – Protect WordPress Files plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of protected files due to insufficient token validation in the `get_advance_file_by_url()` method in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.8.8 The method uses a SQL `LIKE` operator for token lookup without escaping wildcard characters via `$wpdb->esc_like()`. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to bypass the private token requirement by supplying SQL wildcard characters (such as `%`) as the token value, matching any record in the plugin's file table and downloading any protected file.

    The EventON Action User plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.14. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to grant EventON management capabilities and the upload_files capability to any non-administrator WordPress role or user, escalating their privileges within the site. The administrator role is protected by an early-return guard in update_role_caps(), so only non-administrator roles and individual users can be targeted; however, the same unauthenticated exposure also allows attackers to enumerate all WordPress users with their IDs and display names, disclose role and user capability state along with nonce values, and tamper with event-to-user term assignments.

  • Jul 23, 2026Tickera – Sell Tickets & Manage Events: Generic SQL InjectionCVE-2026-15761 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.5

    The Tickera – Sell Tickets & Manage Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'tc_event_filter' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.0.1 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with staff-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. The vulnerable code path is reachable by users holding the plugin's custom Staff role, as the plugin's add_required_capabilities() function grants that role the edit_tc_tickets_instances capability, providing access to the tc_tickets_instances admin list screen where the filter is applied.

  • Jul 23, 2026MDJM Event Management: Privilege EscalationCVE-2026-15017 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 8.8

    The MDJM Event Management plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.8.4. This is due to missing capability checks and nonce verification in the `MDJM_Permissions::set_permissions()` and `MDJM_Employee_Manager::init()` functions, combined with the absence of server-side allow-list validation on the `employee_roles[]` and `new_role` POST parameters before they are passed to `mdjm_set_employee_role()` and `WP_User::set_role()`. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to grant arbitrary MDJM capabilities — including `mdjm_employee` and `mdjm_employee_edit` — to any registered WordPress role, and subsequently leverage a subscriber-level account to escalate privileges to Administrator. `MDJM_Permissions::init()` is registered on the public WordPress `init` hook without any authentication gate, meaning the role-manipulation endpoint is reachable without any prior login.

  • Jul 23, 2026Registrations For The Events Calendar: SQL InjectionCVE-2026-13119 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceMedium 6.5

    The Registrations For The Events Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via JSON keys in the 'standard' parameter handled by the rtec_records_edit AJAX action in versions up to and including 3.2. The handler decodes attacker-controlled JSON from $_POST['standard'] and uses the JSON array keys directly as column identifiers in the SET clause of an UPDATE statement built inside RTEC_Db_Admin::update_entry(). Only esc_sql() (mysqli_real_escape_string) is applied to the identifier; that function escapes quotes, backslashes, and a few control characters but does not escape spaces, equals signs, parentheses, or hyphens, so an attacker can break out of the identifier context and inject subqueries (terminated with a SQL comment). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above who can edit the targeted event, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

  • Jul 22, 2026Events Manager: Does not safely handle booking-registration data on sites using No-User-Account Booking Mode: a booker-supplied registration field is storedCVE-2026-12987 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WPScanHigh 7.5

    The Events Manager WordPress plugin before 7.3.7 does not safely handle booking-registration data on sites using No-User-Account Booking Mode: a booker-supplied registration field is stored as booking meta and later deserialized without restricting allowed classes, enabling PHP object injection. The resulting gadget chain reaches a database query that is built without parameterisation, so an unauthenticated attacker can read arbitrary database data (e.g. user password hashes, secret keys) when the booking is later loaded.

    The Modern Event Calendar Pro WordPress plugin before 7.34.0, Modern Events Calendar Lite WordPress plugin before 7.34.0 do not sanitise and escape a request parameter before using it in a SQL statement, through an AJAX action available to unauthenticated users, leading to an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability that allows attackers to extract sensitive data from the database.

    The Tickera – Sell Tickets & Manage Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'price_wrapper' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.0.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Successful execution of the injected script is limited to victims who have the referenced ticket ID present in their cart cookie, meaning the payload only fires for users who have previously added that ticket to their cart.
