CVE-2026-14231: LifterLMS select2 query exposes internal post titles to Subscribers

LifterLMS before 10.0.10 exposes the select2_query_posts AJAX action to any logged-in user who supplies the front-end llms.ajax_nonce as _ajax_nonce. Because the handler does not require a privileged capability, a Subscriber can control post_type and post_statuses and enumerate titles from internal LifterLMS post types. For llms_coupon, the coupon code is stored as the post title, so the response directly discloses usable discount codes; other queryable types include llms_voucher, llms_order and llms_access_plan.

Jul 30, 2026 CVE-2026-14207
LifterLMS instructors can store JavaScript in course pricing markup
LifterLMS versions 9.2.3 through 10.0.9 permit an Instructor or another role able to edit courses to place event-handler attributes in Course Options > Featured Pricing Information. The attacker-controlled markup is stored in the _llms_featured_pricing post meta without removing handlers such as onclick, then rendered unescaped in the course editor and on the public course catalog. The script can therefore execute in an Administrator's wp-admin session when the administrator views and interacts with the affected course, as well as in public visitors' sessions. Version 10.0.10 adds sanitization to the pricing-display markup.
