Description

The Download Manager WordPress plugin before 3.3.62 does not bind its temporary download token to the requesting session nor expire it promptly, making the token a long-lived, multi-use, portable bearer token, so that an attacker who obtains one leaked download key can repeatedly download a role- or password-protected package file without authorization.
