CVE-2025-12175

Impact

The The Events Calendar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access due to a missing capability check on the 'tec_qr_code_modal' AJAX endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 6.15.9. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to view draft event names and generate/view QR codes for them.
