Technical details
Tutor LMS is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) due to a failure to properly sanitize and escape the 'Lesson Attachment Title' field. The vulnerability is located within the attachment handling logic, specifically affecting components like 'classes/Utils.php' and 'templates/global/attachments.php'. An authenticated attacker with at least 'Author' level privileges can submit a malicious payload via the attachment title. Because the plugin fails to neutralize this input before storing it and subsequently rendering it on the page, the script executes in the context of any user (including administrators) who views the lesson. This is tracked as CWE-79. A patch was introduced in version 3.9.14 (changeset 3590029).
