Advisory

Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Sanjar Tulkinov.

The Modern Events Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in all versions up to 7.37.0 (exclusive) due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query in the mec_fes_csv_export function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
