Summary

Tutor LMS, a WordPress eLearning plugin, is affected in all versions up to and including 4.1.0. Missing input sanitization and output escaping of the display_name parameter allow stored cross-site scripting (CWE-79). An authenticated attacker with subscriber-level access or above can inject scripts that run whenever a user opens an affected page, and the attack requires a Legal Consent record to exist for the attacker's account.

Description from the CNA

The Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via display_name Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation requires that a Legal Consent record exists for the attacker's user account, causing the View Logs button to appear in the wp-admin/users.php Consent Logs column.
