CVE-2025-13563Lizza LMS Pro <= 1.0.3 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation
Critical 9.8
In plain English
A critical-severity privilege mismanagement in Lizza LMS Pro from BuddhaThemes. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.4% (higher than 36% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The Lizza LMS Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.3. This is due to the 'lizza_lms_pro_register_user_front_end' function not restricting what user roles a user can register with. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to supply the 'administrator' role during registration and gain administrator access to the site.
