Descriptions

The Events Calendar WordPress plugin before 6.4.0.1 does not properly sanitize user-submitted content when rendering some views via AJAX.

El complemento Events Calendar de WordPres anterior a 6.4.0.1 no sanitiza adecuadamente el contenido enviado por el usuario al representar algunas vistas a través de AJAX.

The The Events Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'view_data' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.4.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
