CVE-2026-9228: CWE-639 Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key in jetmonsters Timetable and Event Schedule by MotoPress
The Timetable and Event Schedule by MotoPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.16 via the action_get_event_data due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to enumerate timeslot IDs and read the full WP_Post object — including post_content, post_excerpt, post_status, and post_author — of draft, pending, and private mp-event posts belonging to other users, along with their associated raw timeslot descriptions.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-9228 is an insecure direct object reference vulnerability in the Timetable and Event Schedule by MotoPress WordPress plugin, affecting all versions up to 2.4.16. The flaw arises from insufficient validation of a user-controlled key in the action_get_event_data functionality, allowing authenticated users with contributor-level privileges or higher to enumerate timeslot IDs and retrieve full WP_Post objects for draft, pending, and private mp-event posts of other users. This includes sensitive post metadata and raw timeslot descriptions, potentially exposing confidential scheduling information. The vulnerability does not impact availability or integrity and requires authenticated access with low attack complexity.
Potential Impact
An attacker with contributor-level or higher access can bypass authorization controls to read sensitive content from other users' draft, pending, and private event posts. This leads to information disclosure of post content and metadata that should otherwise be inaccessible. There is no indication of impact on data integrity or availability. The vulnerability has a medium severity rating with a CVSS score of 4.3.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only and monitor for plugin updates from jetmonsters. Avoid granting unnecessary privileges that could be leveraged to exploit this vulnerability.
