Synopsis

Download Manager Plugin for WordPress < 3.2.34 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Description

The WordPress Download Manager Plugin installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- A Authenticated SQL Injection in the package_ids parameter leading to reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) (CVE-2021-25069).

- Weak Master Download key permits attackers to brute force the key with reasonable resources & bypass role or password based protections for downloads. (CVE-2022-0828)

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Download Manager Plugin for WordPress 3.2.34 or latest.
