Description

The WP Courses LMS plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions before 2.0.44 due to improper handling of the unfiltered_html capability. This makes it possible for administrator-level attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
