CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The Tutor LMS WordPress plugin prior to version 3.9.13 is vulnerable due to a lack of authorization and validation when creating comments, enabling authenticated users with subscriber-level access and above to post auto-approved comments containing arbitrary HTML and links across the site. This flaw can lead to potential exploitation through spam or malicious content, compromising site integrity and user experience. WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate this risk.

Original NVD Description

The Tutor LMS WordPress plugin before 3.9.13 does not perform any authorization or post-target validation before creating a comment in one of its handlers, and stores the comment pre-approved, allowing authenticated users with subscriber-level access and above to post auto-approved comments containing arbitrary HTML and links on any content across the site, bypassing the comment moderation queue.
