Description

The EventON plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including 3.0.5. This is due to insufficient escaping and sanitization on the qequal to parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. Please note this only affects the premium version of this plugin.
