CVE-2024-13599

What is CVE-2024-13599?

The LearnPress plugin for WordPress is impacted by a Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability due to inadequate input sanitization and lack of proper output escaping for lesson names.

These scripts are executed when other users visit the compromised pages, potentially leading to unauthorized actions or data breaches. Users should update to the latest version immediately to mitigate the risks of exploitation.
