Registration deletion or update via missing nonce validation
Published Mar 1, 2023 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
CSRF in Fullworks Digital Ltd. Quick Event Manager 9.7.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to modify or delete registrations via forged requests. The registration action handlers process delete, delete-all, edit, and update operations without adequately verifying a WordPress nonce, so forged requests inherit the victim's authenticated authority. Exploitation requires an authenticated site user to visit attacker-controlled content, and the resulting changes remain limited to registration actions available to that user.
