This CVE was published Sep 18, 2026 and is one of 31 known issues for this plugin.

Update, patch or deactivate.

The authoritative export identifies 3.7.50 as fixed. Update to that release or a later supported version. Verify the instructor's ownership or explicit management permission for the requested course before returning its student roster.

Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
