Published: Tue Feb 03 2026 (02/03/2026, 07:31:23 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: themeum
Product: Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution

Description

The Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR) in all versions up to, and including, 3.9.5. This is due to missing object-level authorization checks in the `course_list_bulk_action()`, `bulk_delete_course()`, and `update_course_status()` functions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Tutor Instructor-level access and above, to modify or delete arbitrary courses they do not own by manipulating course IDs in bulk action requests.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-1375 describes an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability in the Tutor LMS WordPress plugin (up to version 3.9.5). The issue arises from missing authorization checks in the functions course_list_bulk_action(), bulk_delete_course(), and update_course_status(), allowing authenticated users with Instructor-level privileges or above to perform unauthorized modifications or deletions of arbitrary courses by manipulating course identifiers in bulk action requests.

Potential Impact

Exploitation allows authenticated users with at least Instructor-level access to modify or delete courses they do not own, potentially disrupting course content and availability. The vulnerability does not affect confidentiality but impacts integrity and availability of course data, reflected in the CVSS vector (Integrity: High, Availability: High). There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict Instructor-level access to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious bulk action requests involving course IDs. Avoid granting unnecessary privileges that could be leveraged to exploit this vulnerability.
