LearnPress Wordpress plugin version prior and including 3.2.6.7 is vulnerable to SQL Injection

The WordPress LearnPress Plugin installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - A SQL injection vulnerability exists in the _get_items method of the LP_Modal_Search_Items class due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to inject or manipulate SQL queries in the back-end database, resulting in the disclosure or manipulation of arbitrary data. (CVE-2020-6010)

 - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the learn_press_accept_become_a_teacher function due to the code not checking the permissions of the requesting user. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via /wpadmin/, to gain 'teacher' access to the application. (CVE-2020-11511)

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The WordPress application running on the remote host has a version of the 'LearnPress' plugin that is prior to 3.2.6.8 and, thus, is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A SQL injection (SQLi) vulnerability exists in the _get_items method of the LP_Modal_Search_Items class     due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     inject or manipulate SQL queries in the back-end database, resulting in the disclosure or manipulation of     arbitrary data. (CVE-2020-6010)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the learn_press_accept_become_a_teacher function due to the     code not checking the permissions of the requesting user. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, via /wpadmin/, to gain 'teacher' access to the application. (CVE-2020-11511)

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
