DescriptionCVE.org

The HEL Online Classroom: AI-powered Online Classrooms WordPress plugin through 1.0.3 does not have any authorisation or authentication check when saving its settings, allowing unauthenticated users to overwrite them and repoint every online classroom, along with the shared secret those sessions are signed with, at infrastructure of their choosing.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated settings overwrite in the HEL Online Classroom WordPress plugin (versions through 1.0.3) allows any remote attacker to redirect all classroom sessions to attacker-controlled infrastructure and replace the shared secret used to sign those sessions. Because no authentication or authorization check exists on the settings-save endpoint, the entire plugin's operational trust model - both the backend URL and the signing secret - can be silently hijacked without any credentials. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation No special conditions are required beyond the target WordPress site having the HEL Online Classroom plugin installed and active in a version at or below 1.0.3. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The provided CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L, score 6.5) materially understates real-world impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation No explicitly confirmed patched release version is present in the available data - administrators should immediately check the WordPress plugin repository for any release beyond 1.0.3 before assuming a fix is available; upstream fix availability is referenced via the WPScan advisory (https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/529663a1-87ed-4cff-92f5-85641e9718b3/) but a released patched version has not been independently confirmed at time of this analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
