Until a fix is available, restrict Subscriber-level access to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity related to user data access. Avoid granting unnecessary privileges to low-level authenticated users.

Description

The Download Monitor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the ajax_search_users function in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.13. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to obtain usernames and emails of site users.
