Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions MasterStudy LMS plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.3.0

Description The issue allows unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary files on the server via the modal parameter.

Recommendations For MasterStudy LMS plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.3.0, consider disabling the modal parameter until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to sensitive files and directories to minimize the risk of arbitrary file inclusion. Avoid using the modal parameter in API endpoints until the issue is resolved.
