# WordPress Modern Events Calendar Lite: subscribers can edit other users' posts

The Modern Events Calendar Lite WordPress plugin before 7.36.4 does not check that a user may edit a post before updating it. An authenticated user with the Subscriber role can change the title, content and excerpt of posts, pages and custom post types written by other users.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the installed plugin version in the WordPress admin under Plugins, or run `wp plugin get modern-events-calendar-lite --field=version` with WP-CLI.
- Confirm whether subscribers can register on the site under Settings > General > Membership.
