Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions LearnPress – WordPress LMS Plugin versions up to, and including, 4.2.6.3

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the Course, Lesson, and Quiz title and content. This allows authenticated attackers with LP Instructor-level access to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 4.2.6.3, update to a version that addresses the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping issue to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Course, Lesson, and Quiz title and content editing features to minimize the risk of exploitation.
