What is CVE-2025-6184?
CVE-2025-6184 is a high-severity SQL injection vulnerability in themeum Tutor LMS Pro, published on 13 Aug 2025. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
The Tutor LMS Pro – eLearning and online course solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the ‘order’ parameter used in the get_submitted_assignments() function in all versions up to, and including, 3.7.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Tutor-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. Only the Pro version is affected.
Weakness: CWE-89
