A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 10 Nov 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

Description

The Download Manager WordPress plugin versions before 3.3.73 and before 7.6.2 contain a vulnerability where the plugin does not verify a package's configured role restriction when validating a package password. This flaw allows an unauthenticated user who knows the password of a role-restricted package to obtain a download key and download the protected file.

Impact

An unauthenticated attacker who knows the password for a role-restricted package can bypass role restrictions and download protected files. This compromises the intended access control mechanism, potentially exposing sensitive or restricted content to unauthorized users.

Summary

The Download Manager WordPress plugin prior to versions 3.3.73 and 7.6.2 fails to enforce role restrictions during package password validation. As a result, an attacker without authentication but with knowledge of the package password can bypass role-based access controls to retrieve a download key and access files intended to be protected by role restrictions.
