CVE-2024-4352: CWE-862 Missing Authorization in themeum Tutor LMS Pro
The Tutor LMS Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data, modification of data, loss of data due to a missing capability check on the 'get_calendar_materials' function. The plugin is also vulnerable to SQL Injection via the ‘year’ parameter of that function due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, 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-2024-4352 affects the Tutor LMS Pro plugin for WordPress by allowing unauthorized access and SQL Injection via the 'get_calendar_materials' function. The vulnerability is due to a missing capability check (CWE-862) and inadequate escaping/preparation of the 'year' parameter in SQL queries. Authenticated users with low-level privileges can append malicious SQL to extract or manipulate sensitive database information. The CVSS 3.1 score is 8.8 (high), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, required privileges, no user interaction, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Potential Impact
Exploitation can lead to unauthorized data access, modification, and loss within the Tutor LMS Pro plugin's database. Attackers with subscriber-level access can leverage SQL Injection to extract sensitive information or alter data, potentially compromising the integrity and availability of the LMS environment.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict subscriber-level permissions where possible and monitor for suspicious activity related to the 'get_calendar_materials' function. Avoid exposing the vulnerable plugin to untrusted users.
