CVE-2024-7149: CWE-22 Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') in arraytics Eventin – Event Calendar, Event Registration, Tickets & Booking (AI Powered)
The Event Manager, Events Calendar, Tickets, Registrations – Eventin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.8 via multiple style parameters. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-7149 describes a path traversal vulnerability (CWE-22) in the Eventin WordPress plugin for event management, affecting all versions up to 4.0.8. Authenticated attackers with Contributor-level privileges can exploit multiple style parameters to perform Local File Inclusion, enabling arbitrary file inclusion and PHP code execution on the server. This can lead to privilege escalation, data disclosure, and remote code execution. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8, indicating high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows attackers with relatively low privileges (Contributor or above) to bypass access controls, read sensitive files, and execute arbitrary PHP code on the server hosting the plugin. This can compromise the entire web application and underlying system, leading to full system compromise or data theft.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict Contributor-level access and above to trusted users only. Monitor for updates from the vendor or plugin maintainers and apply patches promptly once available.
