Summary
Multiple Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issues were discovered in ATutor 2.2.2. The vulnerabilities exist due to insufficient filtration of user-supplied data passed to several pages (lang_code in themes/*/admin/system_preferences/language_edit.tmpl.php). An attacker could execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a browser in the context of the vulnerable website.
Exploit prediction
0.71% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 53% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-09).
