Unauthenticated file disclosure via nonce bypass
Published Jun 23, 2026 · Updated Jun 23, 2026
IDOR in N-Media Frontend File Manager Plugin through 23.6 allows remote attackers to download other users' uploaded files. The download handler treats the mere presence of nm_file_by_email as authorization to skip nonce verification, then fetches the file selected by a user-controlled file_id. No authentication is required, and sequential identifiers expose files uploaded by any plugin user.
