Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The Academy LMS – WordPress LMS Plugin for Complete eLearning Solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.8 via deserialization of untrusted input in the 'import_all_courses' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to inject a PHP Object. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software, which means this vulnerability has no impact unless another plugin or theme containing a POP chain is installed on the site. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it may allow the attacker to perform actions like delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code depending on the POP chain present.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a PHP Object Injection in the Academy LMS WordPress plugin (up to version 3.3.8) that occurs via deserialization of untrusted input in the 'import_all_courses' function. It allows authenticated users with Administrator-level access or higher to inject a PHP object. However, it only has an impact if another plugin or theme with a POP (Property Oriented Programming) chain is installed, which can then be exploited to perform malicious actions.

Impact Analysis

If exploited in an environment where a POP chain is present via another plugin or theme, this vulnerability can allow an attacker to delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute arbitrary code on the affected system. Without a POP chain, the vulnerability has no impact.
