Technical details
The LearnPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure due to missing authorization (CWE-862) in the 'check_answer' functionality. The vulnerability is present in versions up to and including 4.4.1 and is accessible via the REST API (specifically within the LP_REST_Users_Controller). An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this to retrieve sensitive quiz data, including correct-answer markers, option lists, and explanations for any quiz question. This bypasses enrollment requirements, allowing access to content from paid courses. A patch appears to be available in subsequent versions based on the provided changeset references.
