Description

LearnPress WordPress Plugin before 4.4.6 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers with the Instructor role to inject persistent malicious payloads by submitting unsanitized input into quiz question answer title fields. Attackers can store arbitrary JavaScript through the answer title parameter, which is rendered through an unescaped HTML sink to execute in the browsers of any user who views the affected quiz question, including students, other instructors, and administrators.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-82024 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the LearnPress WordPress Plugin prior to version 4.4.6. The flaw arises because input submitted by authenticated users with the Instructor role into quiz question answer title fields is not properly sanitized. This allows attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript code that is stored and later rendered unescaped in the HTML output. When other users view the affected quiz question, the malicious script executes in their browsers, potentially leading to session hijacking or other client-side attacks.

Potential Impact

The vulnerability enables authenticated Instructor role users to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the browsers of other users who view the affected quiz questions. This can lead to unauthorized actions performed on behalf of users, theft of sensitive information, or other client-side attacks. The impact is limited to users who have access to the affected quiz content.

Mitigation Recommendations

A fix is available in LearnPress version 4.4.6. Users should upgrade to version 4.4.6 or later to remediate this vulnerability. Until patched, restrict Instructor role permissions or avoid using quiz question answer title fields for untrusted input.
