Security Summary

CVE-2024-13265 is an Improper Neutralization of Directives in Statically Saved Code vulnerability, known as 'Static Code Injection' (CWE-96), in the Drupal Opigno Learning path module. This flaw allows PHP Local File Inclusion and affects all versions of Opigno Learning path from 0.0.0 before 3.1.2.

The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
