Published on 01 Oct 2021
Vulnerability

Lack of authorization checks in the Modern Events Calendar Lite WordPress plugin, versions before 5.16.5, did not properly restrict access to the export files, allowing unauthenticated users to export all events data in CSV or XML format.

Mitigation / Precaution

To patch this vulnerability, we suggest updating the Modern Events Calendar Lite WordPress plugin to the latest version.
