AI-suggested

Until an official fix is available, users should consider applying temporary mitigations such as disabling or restricting the RSVP feature if feasible, or implementing web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block malicious input targeting the RSVP name field. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply official patches promptly once released.

Description

The The Events Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via RSVP name field in all versions up to, and including, 6.6.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
