Description

The Simple Download Monitor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Log Resets in versions up to, and including, 3.9.5. This is due to a lack of nonce and capability checks on the 'sdm_reset_log' AJAX action. This makes it possible for authenticated subscriber-level attackers and above (unauthenticated if performing CSRF) to reset logs within the vulnerable service.
