James GolovichStrategic Overview
Vulnerability Overview
The Download Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Listing in versions up to, and including, 2.8.7. This is due to the 'wpdm_dir_tree()' function being called during the 'init' action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read all of the files listed in that directory.
Technical Analysis
REMEDIATION: Update to version 2.8.8, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor) The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.
