CVE-2024-10400: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in themeum Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution
The Tutor LMS plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the ‘rating_filter’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.6 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-10400 is an SQL Injection vulnerability in the Tutor LMS plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to 2.7.6. The issue arises from insufficient escaping of the 'rating_filter' parameter and inadequate preparation of the SQL query, enabling unauthenticated attackers to append arbitrary SQL commands. This can be leveraged to extract sensitive data from the backend database. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5, indicating high severity, with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, and no user interaction needed.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to perform SQL Injection attacks, potentially extracting sensitive information from the database. The vulnerability does not impact integrity or availability but compromises confidentiality. No known active exploitation has been reported to date.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should consider disabling or restricting access to the vulnerable parameter if possible or applying web application firewall rules to detect and block SQL Injection attempts targeting the 'rating_filter' parameter.
