Last modified
CVE-2021-24696 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The Simple Download Monitor WordPress plugin before 3.9.9 does not enforce nonce checks, which could allow attackers to perform CSRF attacks to 1) make admins export logs to exploit a separate log disclosure vulnerability (fixed in 3.9.6), 2) delete logs (fixed in 3.9.9), 3) remove thumbnail image from downloads. EPSS estimates a 0.63% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
