Modern Events Calendar Lite < 5.16.5 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

Description

The plugin did not sanitise the mic_comment field (Notes on time) when adding/editing an event, allowing users with privilege as low as author to add events with a Cross-Site Scripting payload in them, which will be triggered in the frontend when viewing the event.
