Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the plugin's download functionality through web server rules or other access controls to prevent unauthorized downloads. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once released.

Description

The WordPress Contact Forms by Cimatti plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the accua_forms_download_submitted_file() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.9.4. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to download other user submitted forms.
