Description · from the CVE record

The Frontend File Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Download in versions up to, and including, 18.2.

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to download arbitrary files on the site, potentially leading to site takeover.
