Unauthenticated data modification via missing capability checks
Published May 16, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Tutor LMS Pro 2.7.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to add, modify, or delete user metadata and plugin options without authentication. Multiple request-handling functions perform these database-backed operations without capability checks; the public record does not name them. No account or user interaction is required, and successful requests can alter or remove stored user metadata and site configuration.
