CVE-2023-2305: w3eden Download Manager

Medium severity, CVSS 5.4. EPSS: 0.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The Download Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'wpdm_members', 'wpdm_login_form', 'wpdm_reg_form' shortcodes in versions up to, and including, 3.2.70 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Affected products

• w3eden Download Manager: before 3.2.71 (fixed in 3.2.71)
