Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-12273 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Tutor LMS. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12273/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12273/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-12273","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12273/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-12273","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cwrv-whxp-7g78"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated subscribers can bypass moderation to post arbitrary HTML comments on any site content due to missing authorization checks in Tutor LMS.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The Tutor LMS  WordPress plugin before 3.9.13 does not perform any authorization or post-target validation before creating a comment in one of its handlers, and stores the comment pre-approved, allowing authenticated users with subscriber-level access and above to post auto-approved comments containing arbitrary HTML and links on any content across the site, bypassing the comment moderation queue.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Tutor LMS \u003c 3.9.13 - Subscriber+ Arbitrary Auto-Approved Comment Creation","id":"CVE-2026-12273","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Tutor LMS \u003c 3.9.13 - Instructor+ Arbitrary Post Overwrite via IDOR","id":"CVE-2026-12274"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Lightweight Cookie Notice \u003c= 1.19 - Sensitive Information Exposure via W3TC_DYNAMIC_SECURITY Constant","id":"CVE-2026-12272"},"products":["Tutor LMS"],"published":"2026-07-13","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-13","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Authenticated subscribers can bypass moderation to post arbitrary HTML comments on any site content due to missing authorization checks in Tutor LMS.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-12273/"}
