Does this affect you?

It affects codename065 Download Manager. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

The Download Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.40. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their details like password. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change user's passwords, except administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.
