## Technical details

A missing authorization check in CalendarUI::onEditEvent() and onDeleteEvent() methods fails to verify that the requesting user owns the calendar event before allowing modification or deletion. An authenticated attacker with EDIT or DELETE permissions can supply arbitrary eventID values to target and modify any user's events, including those restricted to specific owners, without additional authentication or user interaction.
