Descriptions

The Download Plugin WordPress plugin before 2.0.0 does not properly validate a user has the required privileges to access a backup's nonce identifier, which may allow any users with an account on the site (such as subscriber) to download a full copy of the website.

El complemento Download Plugin de WordPress anterior a 2.0.0 no valida adecuadamente que un usuario tenga los privilegios necesarios para acceder al identificador nonce de una copia de seguridad, lo que puede permitir a cualquier usuario con una cuenta en el sitio (como un suscriptor) descargar una copia completa del sitio web.

The Download Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to, and including, 1.6.2 due to missing capability checks on the dpwap_plugin_multiple_download_func function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level attackers to create and download arbitrary content as backup zip files in the wp-content folder.
