Authenticated SQL injection via unsanitized course ID
Published Apr 30, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
SQL injection in LearnPress for WordPress through 3.2.6.7 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL via the course duplicator request. The duplicator endpoint accepts the GET id parameter and passes it as old_post_id into learn_press_duplicate_post_meta, where $wpdb->get_results builds a query without sanitization. Exploitation requires a WordPress account with at least contributor-level edit_posts capability and a valid course post identifier, enabling database confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
