Stored script execution via materials content rendering
Published Feb 12, 2025 · Updated Feb 14, 2025
Stored cross-site scripting in LearnDash 6.7.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute script in another user's browser. The public record identifies the rendered materials-content class as the storage-and-display locus but does not disclose the input field, sanitization error, or code-level output sink. Low-privileged access is required to store the payload, and a separate user must view the affected content; resulting script runs in that viewer's LearnDash origin and can read or modify browser-accessible data.
