## Affected

- themeum Tutor LMS Elementor Addons: through 4.0.0

## Description

The Tutor LMS Elementor Addons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.0 This is due to missing capability checks on the `activate_tutor_free()` and `activate_elementor_free()` functions registered as `admin_action_*` handlers. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to activate the Tutor LMS and Elementor plugins without proper authorization.
