Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Relative Path Traversal vulnerability in Arraytics Eventin wp-event-solution allows Path Traversal.This issue affects Eventin: from n/a through <= 4.0.26.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

Relative path traversal vulnerability in the Eventin WordPress plugin (versions <= 4.0.26) allows attackers to use '..' sequences in file path requests to access files outside the web root directory, potentially exposing sensitive system files or configuration data.

MitigationUpdate Eventin plugin to the latest version when available; if no patch exists, implement web application firewall rules to block path traversal sequences ('..') and restrict file access to intended directories.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm Eventin plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin dashboard > Plugins > Installed Plugins. Look for 'Eventin' or 'Eventin - Event Conference' in the plugin list.
    Affected if Eventin plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Check installed Eventin version
    In the Installed Plugins list, locate Eventin and view the version number displayed beneath the plugin name. Compare it to the affected version range: versions below 4.0.27 are vulnerable.
    Affected if The installed version is 4.0.26 or lower (< 4.0.27)
  3. Identify exposed file-related endpoints
    Review the website for any public-facing features that accept file path parameters (e.g., file download, template loading, asset retrieval functions). Check for URL parameters that might accept file paths.
    Affected if The plugin exposes any functionality that accepts file path parameters accessible to unauthenticated or authenticated users
  4. Test for directory traversal vulnerability
    If file-related endpoints exist, attempt a safe test request using directory traversal sequences (e.g., ?file=../../wp-config.php). Monitor whether the application returns files from outside the expected directory.
    Affected if The application returns files from directories outside the intended web root when traversal sequences are used

The environment is affected if Eventin plugin versions 4.0.26 or below are installed AND the plugin exposes file path parameters that accept user input without proper sanitization.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 4.0.27 or later
Fixed in 4.0.27
Interim mitigation

Update Eventin plugin to the latest version when available; if no patch exists, implement web application firewall rules to block path traversal sequences ('..') and restrict file access to intended directories.

Recommended fix High confidence

4.0.27 or latest available version

  1. Create a full backup of the WordPress site including database and files
  2. Log in to the WordPress admin dashboard
  3. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins
  4. Locate the Eventin plugin (wp-event-solution)
  5. If automatic updates are enabled, the plugin should update to 4.0.27 or later; otherwise, click 'Update Now'
  6. Alternatively, manually upload the updated plugin version 4.0.27 or later via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin
  7. After update, verify the plugin version shows 4.0.27 or newer in the plugins list
  8. Clear any caching layers if present
