CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The Tutor LMS plugin for WordPress prior to version 4.0.8 is vulnerable due to improper validation of incoming requests to its REST API, which allows users with read-only API keys to gain administrative privileges. This flaw can lead to unauthorized access and manipulation of sensitive data or settings within the WordPress site. WordPress site administrators using the Tutor LMS plugin should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate this security risk.

Original NVD Description

The Tutor LMS WordPress plugin before 4.0.8 does not correctly determine whether an incoming request is addressed to its own REST API, and does not enforce the permission recorded against an API credential, allowing the holder of a read-only key to act as the administrator account that issued it.
