CVE-2026-118637 Details
Description
The Simple Download Monitor WordPress plugin before 4.1.3 does not properly check the visibility of the content referenced by one of its shortcodes, allowing users with a role as low as Contributor to disclose the title and description of private, draft and other non-public posts.
A vulnerability in the Simple Download Monitor WordPress plugin, affecting versions prior to 4.1.3, allows users with a Contributor role to access and disclose the titles and descriptions of private, draft, and other non-public posts. This issue arises because the plugin's shortcode visibility checks are inadequate, failing to properly restrict access to sensitive content.
Users are advised to update the Simple Download Monitor WordPress plugin to version 4.1.3 or later.
