CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe Academy LMS plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference, allowing authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access or higher to manipulate private lesson notes and falsify lesson-completion progress for any user, including administrators. This vulnerability arises from inadequate validation of user-controlled keys in specific AJAX handlers. WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize patching to mitigate potential data exposure and integrity issues.
Original NVD Description
The Academy LMS – WordPress LMS Plugin for Complete eLearning Solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 3.8.0 via the 'save_lesson_note', 'get_lesson_note', and 'complete_lesson_video' AJAX handlers due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to read, overwrite, or delete the private lesson notes of any other user (including administrators), and to falsify lesson-completion progress for arbitrary users.
