Authenticated post deletion via missing capability check
Published Mar 9, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Missing authorization in Metagauss EventPrime 3.4.3 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to delete arbitrary WordPress posts. The calendar_events_delete() function deletes the referenced post without checking whether the caller has permission to delete it. Subscriber-level access is sufficient, and successful use removes attacker-selected site content.
