Technical details
The LearnPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in versions up to and including 4.4.0. The vulnerability exists within the FilterCourseTemplate::sections() method, where the 'class_wrapper_form' shortcode attribute is inserted into an HTML class attribute via sprintf() without proper esc_attr() escaping. Because the FilterCourseShortcode::render() handler fails to apply shortcode_atts() filtering, raw user-supplied attributes are passed directly into the template. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level permissions or higher can exploit this to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute in the context of any user viewing the affected page. A patch has been released in subsequent versions.
Affected products
- Thimpress LearnPress – WordPress LMS Plugin for Create and Sell Online Courses <= 4.4.0
