Technical details
The MDJM Event Management and Mobile Events Manager WordPress plugins fail to validate user capabilities, verify nonce tokens, or confirm record type before executing post deletion requests via their playlist entry removal endpoint. The vulnerability is a missing authorization check (CWE-862) that allows unauthenticated attackers to craft requests to delete arbitrary posts, pages, and media attachments. Attack vector is network-based with no authentication required or user interaction needed. An attacker can permanently destroy site content, bypassing WordPress's trash/recovery mechanism. MDJM Event Management was patched in version 1.7.8.5; Mobile Events Manager has no known fix available.
