Summary
CVE-2024-10706 is a vulnerability affecting the Download Manager plugin for WordPress prior to version 3.3.03. This issue arises from the plugin's failure to sanitize and escape certain settings. This oversight can enable high privilege users, such as administrators, to execute Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. In multisite setups, the unfiltered_html capability is typically disallowed to mitigate XSS risks, but this vulnerability bypasses that protection.
