CVE-2024-9637 Description

The School Management System – WPSchoolPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.10. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user\'s identity prior to updating their details like email. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with teacher-level access and above, to change arbitrary user\'s email addresses, including administrators, and leverage that to reset the user\'s password and gain access to their account.
