CLUEVO LMS E-Learning Platform WordPress Plugin Reflected Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the CLUEVO LMS, E-Learning Platform plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 1.13.2. The vulnerability arises from the improper handling of query arguments in the URL, which allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary scripts. These scripts can be executed if the attacker successfully convinces a user to click on a manipulated link.

Impact

Reproduction

To reproduce this vulnerability, an attacker can create a link that includes a malicious script payload in the 'module_id' query parameter. When a user clicks on this link, the injected script will be executed in their browser.

Remediation

No known patch is available. Users are advised to uninstall the affected plugin and consider a replacement.
