CVE-2023-2305

The Download Manager plugin for WordPress contains a stored cross-site scripting flaw affecting versions 3.2.70 and earlier in the 'wpdm_members', 'wpdm_login_form', and 'wpdm_reg_form' shortcodes. The vulnerability stems from inadequate sanitization and escaping of user-supplied shortcode attributes, allowing authenticated users with contributor privileges or higher to embed malicious scripts into pages. These injected scripts execute in the browsers of anyone viewing the affected pages.
