DescriptionCVE.org

The WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.2 does not have any authorisation or CSRF checks when storing visitor consent state, and the code that does so runs on every front-end page load, allowing unauthenticated attackers to overwrite a site-wide option with arbitrary data.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated arbitrary option overwrite in WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.2 lets any remote visitor corrupt a site-wide WordPress option with attacker-controlled data. The vulnerable consent-state persistence routine lacks both WordPress capability checks (CWE-862) and CSRF token validation, and it fires unconditionally on every front-end page load - no special request path or trigger required. …
