Summary
The Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'tab' parameter in all versions up to and including 4.1.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute if they can trick a user into clicking a link. Exploitation requires the targeted lesson page to have an empty nav-items array, which occurs naturally when a lesson has no content, no attachments, and comments are disabled or the viewer is not logged in.
Risk Assessment
An unauthenticated attacker can trick users into executing malicious code in their browser, potentially leading to session data theft or actions performed on behalf of the victim. Sites running Tutor LMS version 4.1.0 or earlier are at risk.
Recommendation
Update the Tutor LMS plugin to a version newer than 4.1.0. Until then, avoid clicking untrusted links to lesson pages and consider disabling the plugin.

- CVE-2026-93681Medium
The Tutor LMS plugin for WordPress (versions up to and including 4.1.0) is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the display_name parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. An authenticated attacker with subscriber-level access or above can inject arbitrary scripts into pages that execute when a user visits the injected page. Exploitation requires that a Legal Consent record exists for the attacker's user account, causing the View Logs button to appear in the wp-admin/users.php Consent Logs column.
- CVE-2026-96537High
The Tutor LMS WordPress plugin before 4.1.1 does not perform a capability check in a routine that regenerates its managed pages, allowing unauthenticated users to force-publish unpublished pages and overwrite their content, create missing ones, and change the options that reference them.

- CVE-2026-18439Medium
The Tutor LMS plugin for WordPress in versions up to and including 4.0.7 is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference via the tutor_quiz_builder_save AJAX action due to missing validation that nested question_id, answer_id, deleted_question_ids[], and deleted_answer_ids[] values belong to a quiz/topic/course the requester is authorized to manage. An authenticated attacker with Instructor-level access or higher can overwrite content and re-parent arbitrary quiz questions/answers belonging to other instructors or administrators, and delete arbitrary quiz question and answer rows.
- CVE-2026-89333Medium
The Tutor LMS plugin for WordPress (versions up to and including 4.0.8) is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) via the 'student_id' parameter. Missing validation on a user-controlled key allows authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access and above to disclose the email address and Tutor profile phone number of arbitrary WordPress users, including Administrators, by iterating over user IDs.
- CVE-2026-89081Medium
The Tutor LMS plugin for WordPress (versions up to and including 4.0.8) is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'search' parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages that execute if they can trick a user into clicking a link.
- CVE-2026-88944Medium
The Tutor LMS plugin for WordPress (versions up to and including 4.0.8) is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to improper verification that a user is authorized to perform an action. This allows authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access and above to permanently delete arbitrary WordPress posts — including pages, courses, quizzes, and WooCommerce products — via wp_delete_post( $id, true ). The exploit chain requires triggering the profile-photo upload flow, creating a Tutor topic reparented to that attachment, then invoking the lesson deletion handler against any target post ID.
Original NVD description (English source)
The Tutor LMS – eLearning and online course solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'tab' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. Exploitation requires the targeted lesson page to have an empty nav-items array — a condition that occurs naturally when a lesson has no post content, no attachments, and comments are disabled or the viewer is not logged in — which bypasses the in_array() tab validation and allows the raw attacker-controlled value to reach the sink.
