What is CVE-2020-27344?

The CM Download Manager Plugin for WordPress, prior to version 2.8.0, is susceptible to a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This flaw allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by users, which can lead to session hijacking, defacement, or redirection to malicious sites. Proper input validation mechanisms are lacking in older versions of the plugin, making it crucial for users to update to the latest version to mitigate this security risk. For more details, visit the WordPress CM Download Manager documentation.
