id: CVE-2021-24943

info:
  name: Registrations for the Events Calendar < 2.7.6 - SQL Injection
  author: ritikchaddha
  severity: critical
  description: |
    The Registrations for the Events Calendar WordPress plugin before 2.7.6 does not sanitise and escape the event_id in the rtec_send_unregister_link AJAX action (available to both unauthenticated and authenticated users) before using it in a SQL statement, leading to an unauthenticated SQL injection.
  remediation: Fixed in 2.7.6
