Description

WordPress Plugin Download Plugin is prone to a vulnerability that lets attackers download arbitrary directories because the application fails to sufficiently verify user-supplied input. This may allow an attacker to gain access to sensitive information, which may aid in launching further attacks. WordPress Plugin Download Plugin version 1.0.1 is vulnerable; prior versions may also be affected.

Remediation

Update to plugin version 1.0.2 or latest
