Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Haitam Lazaar.
The Events Made Easy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in versions up to, and including, 3.1.3. This is due to missing ownership verification and nonce check on the change personal information form submission handler, allowing unauthenticated requests to update any person record by IDOR. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify personal information of arbitrary persons by supplying a manipulated person_id without authorization.
