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 · moderate confidence

Missing Authorization vulnerability in EventPrime WordPress plugin allows unauthenticated or low-privileged users to perform actions that should require higher access levels due to incorrectly configured access control checks. The vulnerability exists in the event-prime-event-calendar-management plugin through version 4.2.6.0, enabling attackers to bypass authorization mechanisms and access administrative or privileged functionality.

MitigationUpdate EventPrime to the latest version which should contain proper authorization checks. If no update is available, restrict access to affected plugin endpoints at the web server level and audit user role capabilities.

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. Verify EventPrime plugin is installed
    Inspect the WordPress plugins directory (wp-content/plugins/) for the event-prime folder, or list installed plugins via wp-admin > Plugins
    Affected if The event-prime plugin folder exists in the WordPress installation
  2. Determine the installed EventPrime version
    Open the main plugin file (event-prime.php) and locate the Version header in the plugin comments, or view the plugin details in WordPress admin under Plugins > Installed Plugins
    Affected if The version displayed is 4.2.6.0 or earlier
  3. Confirm the plugin is active
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Plugins and verify that EventPrime shows as Active
    Affected if EventPrime is enabled and running on the site
  4. Test for authorization bypass on plugin endpoints
    Attempt to access EventPrime administrative functions or endpoints with a low-privilege user account (subscriber/author role) or while logged out, observing whether privileged actions complete without proper authorization checks
    Affected if Low-privileged or unauthenticated users can successfully perform actions that should require administrator-level permissions

If EventPrime version 4.2.6.0 or earlier is installed and active, the missing authorization vulnerability likely affects this environment
