Descriptions

The Community Events WordPress plugin before 1.5 does not have CSRF check in place when deleting events, which could allow attackers to make a logged in admin delete arbitrary events via a CSRF attack

El complemento de WordPress Community Events anterior a la versión 1.5 no tiene activada la verificación CSRF al eliminar eventos, lo que podría permitir a los atacantes hacer que un administrador que haya iniciado sesión elimine eventos arbitrarios mediante un ataque CSRF.

The Community Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.9. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the on_show_page() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete events via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
