CVE-2024-4434 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The LearnPress – WordPress LMS Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the ‘term_id’ parameter in versions up to, and including, 4.2.6.5 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query.

EPSS estimates a 36.93% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
