What to do

Update, patch or deactivate.

A safe version is available, so updating to that version or later is the preferred remediation. If an immediate update is not practical, consider a targeted application patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality.

Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.

Source record

Technical description

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.
