Other vulnerabilities in Download Manager
See all- CVE-2026-92714Medium
The Download Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in versions up to and including 3.3.68 via the duplicate() function hooked on admin_init. This is due to the handler only verifying the generic 'edit_posts' capability and a plugin-wide static nonce without any object-level authorization check. Authenticated attackers with Author-level access or above can duplicate arbitrary Download Manager packages owned by other users, copying all package metadata including protected file references, role-based access restrictions, and password lock settings into an attacker-owned clone.
- CVE-2026-16685Medium
The Download Manager plugin for WordPress up to version 3.3.66 contains a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability via the 'icon' shortcode attribute. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above can inject arbitrary web scripts that execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
- CVE-2026-14292Medium
The Download Manager WordPress plugin before version 3.3.66 does not properly escape a package's title before outputting it in front-end templates.
