An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-16608 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Download Monitor. 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-2026-16608/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16608/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-16608","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16608/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-16608","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-25m3-39mc-92qp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject arbitrary download log entries into the Download Monitor WordPress plugin, inflating site statistics.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"The Download Monitor WordPress plugin before 5.2.6 does not perform authorization checks on one of its download-logging AJAX actions, and exposes the nonce protecting it to unauthenticated visitors, allowing unauthenticated users to inject arbitrary download log entries and inflate a site's download statistics.","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":"Download Monitor \u003c 5.2.6 - Unauthenticated Download Log Injection","id":"CVE-2026-16608","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in Admin and Site Enhancements (ASE) Pro","id":"CVE-2026-16610"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Authenticated local root privilege escalation vulnerability in openFT for Linux and Oracle Solaris","id":"CVE-2026-16607"},"products":["Download Monitor"],"published":"2026-08-08","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-11","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject arbitrary download log entries into the Download Monitor WordPress plugin, inflating site statistics.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16608/"}
