What the vulnerability does

01Description

The Download Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the 'reviewUserStatus' function in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.49. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to retrieve sensitive information for any user on the site including email addresses, display names, and registration dates.

Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms

02Summary

Download Manager versions up to 3.3.49 expose sensitive information to authenticated users. A logged-in attacker can read data they should not have access to through the application's information disclosure vulnerability.
