Description

WordPress Plugin Tutor LMS-eLearning and online course solution is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This can allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks. WordPress Plugin Tutor LMS-eLearning and online course solution version 1.9.11 is vulnerable; prior versions may also be affected.

Remediation
