Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to WPScanTeam.
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.
