Threat database

The Events Made Easy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'event[location_name]' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.22 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. This vulnerability is only exploitable when both the guest event submission feature (eme_fs[guest_submit]) and forced location creation (eme_fs[force_location_creation]) are explicitly enabled by a site administrator, as both settings default to off.

The Events Made Easy WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 3.2.5) contains a Local File Inclusion vulnerability in the eme_single_event_page_template function. Authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher can exploit this flaw to include and execute arbitrary PHP files on the server. This can lead to bypassing access controls, data exposure, or remote code execution if malicious PHP files are uploaded and included. The vulnerability triggers passively when any visitor loads the affected single-event page, requiring no further attacker interaction after payload submission.
