An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-24773 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown WordPress Download Manager. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24773/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24773/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24773","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24773/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24773","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6645-2q63-p5rq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"High-privilege users can inject malicious scripts via Download settings, potentially leading to session hijacking or site compromise.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"download_manager","vendor":"w3eden"}],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The WordPress Download Manager WordPress plugin before 3.2.16 does not escape some of the Download settings when outputting them, allowing high privilege users to perform XSS attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WordPress Download Manager \u003c 3.2.16 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-24773","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Check \u0026 Log Email \u003c 1.0.3 - Admin+ SQL Injections","id":"CVE-2021-24774"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Stream \u003c 3.8.2 - Admin+ SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-24772"},"products":["WordPress Download Manager"],"published":"2021-11-01","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Download Manager \u003c= 3.2.49 - Authenticated (Contributor+) PHAR Deserialization","id":"CVE-2022-2436","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-06"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"WordPress Download Manager \u003c 3.2.34 - Authenticated SQL Injection to Reflected XSS","id":"CVE-2021-25069","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-21"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-9260","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-07"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Download Manager \u003c= 3.2.50 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Arbitrary File Deletion","id":"CVE-2022-2431","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-06"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Download Manager \u003c= 3.2.89 - Improper Authorization via protectMediaLibrary","id":"CVE-2024-2098","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-13"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Download Manager \u003c 3.2.83 - Unauthenticated Protected File Download Password Leak","id":"CVE-2023-6421","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-01-01"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Download Manager Pro \u003c 6.3.0 - Unauthenticated Sensitive Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2023-1809","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-02"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"High-privilege users can inject malicious scripts via Download settings, potentially leading to session hijacking or site compromise.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24773/"}
