Description

The Eventin – Events Calendar, Tickets, Registration, Booking & WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference via the event create REST endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.26, due to the endpoint using a user-supplied 'id' body parameter, instead of the newly created event, to choose which post's featured image to set. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to change the featured image of any post or page on the site.
