What do about a potential phone breach - things being added to my calendar? Do I need to worry about access to other files/passwords on my phone?

iPhone 11, iOS 14

If running iOS 13 or earlier versions, check: Settings - Passwords & Accounts - Accounts - Any rogue entries here? If so, delete the rogue account.

If running iOS 14, check: Settings - Calendar - Accounts - Any rogue entries here? If so, delete the rogue account.

You gave an app or website permission to access your calendar.

They filled it with spam.

That's all they were able to do.
