CVE-2026-1987

The Scheduler Widget plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 0.1.6. This is due to the `scheduler_widget_ajax_save_event()` function lacking proper authorization checks and ownership verification when updating events. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify any event in the scheduler via the `id` parameter granted they have knowledge of the event ID.

Summary		(es) El plugin Scheduler Widget para WordPress es vulnerable a una referencia directa insegura a objetos (IDOR) en todas las versiones hasta la 0.1.6, inclusive. Esto se debe a que la función 'scheduler_widget_ajax_save_event()' carece de comprobaciones de autorización adecuadas y verificación de propiedad al actualizar eventos. Esto permite a atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel Suscriptor y superior, modificar cualquier evento en el programador a través del parámetro 'id' siempre que conozcan el ID del evento.
