An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-85569 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2026-85569/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-85569/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-85569","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-85569/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-85569","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-55mc-729g-3x85"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A read-only API key holder can escalate privileges to administrator due to incorrect REST request classification in Tutor LMS.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"The Tutor LMS  WordPress plugin before 4.0.8 does not correctly determine whether an incoming request is addressed to its own REST API, and does not enforce the permission recorded against an API credential, allowing the holder of a read-only key to act as the administrator account that issued it.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Tutor LMS 2.7.1 - \u003c 4.0.8 - Read-Only API Key Privilege Escalation via REST Request Misclassification","id":"CVE-2026-85569","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Tutor LMS 4.0.5 - 4.1.0 - Instructor+ Arbitrary Post Reparenting via IDOR","id":"CVE-2026-85571"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Unlimited Elements For Elementor 1.5.139 - 2.0.20 - Unauthenticated SQLi via 'ucs' Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-85568"},"products":["Tutor LMS"],"published":"2026-09-16","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-17","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"A read-only API key holder can escalate privileges to administrator due to incorrect REST request classification in Tutor LMS.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-85569/"}
