Summary

LearnPress, a WordPress LMS plugin, is affected in all versions up to and including 4.4.10. Insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the quantity REST parameter and the order_comments checkout parameter allow stored cross-site scripting (CWE-79). With guest checkout enabled, an unauthenticated attacker can inject scripts that run whenever a user accesses the injected page. With guest checkout disabled, a Subscriber-level user can exploit it through their own checkout.

Description from the CNA

The LearnPress – WordPress LMS Plugin for Create and Sell Online Courses plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'quantity (REST) / order_comments (checkout)' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.4.10 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. With guest checkout enabled the attack is fully unauthenticated; with guest checkout disabled, any Subscriber-level user can exploit both vectors through their own checkout.
