What the vulnerability does
The LifterLMS – WordPress LMS Plugin for eLearning plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'process_review' function in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.1. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to publish an unrestricted number of reviews on the site.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms

The vulnerability affects the plugin's core access control logic, enabling attackers to alter course content, user records, or other protected information via network requests. Site administrators should update to a version newer than 7.5.1 immediately.
