Unauthorized Data Deletion in LearnPress Plugin for WordPress
CVE-2026-4365

9.1CRITICAL

What is CVE-2026-4365?

The LearnPress plugin for WordPress has a vulnerability that allows unauthorized users to delete quiz answer options. This is due to the absence of a necessary capability check on the 'delete_question_answer()' function, affecting all versions through 4.3.2.8. The plugin inadvertently exposes a 'wp_rest' nonce in publicly accessible frontend HTML, which serves as the only barrier to the 'lp-load-ajax' AJAX dispatcher. Unsanctioned attackers can exploit this flaw by sending specially crafted POST requests using the publicly available nonce, leading to potential data loss and manipulation.
