If you cannot patch yet, restrict access to the REST endpoint if possible or implement additional access controls at the web server or application firewall level to prevent unauthorized deletion requests.

The WP Photo Album Plus WordPress plugin before 9.2.07.002 does not perform any capability or nonce check on one of its public REST endpoint actions, allowing unauthenticated users to delete the generated album export ZIP archives it stores.
