## Description

The Events Made Easy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to mass assignment via the frontend event submission form in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.6. This is due to the plugin merging the entire submitted 'event' array, filtered only with kses, into the event record without restricting which columns may be set. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers, when guest event submission is enabled, to set protected fields such as the event author, contact person, event status (bypassing the auto-publish moderation setting), recurrence ID, notification email bodies, registration and cancellation form templates, and the option that adds registrants to groups.
