Subscriber Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in WP Cookie Notice for GDPR, CCPA & ePrivacy Consent <= 4.3.9 versions.

AnalysisAI

The scope-changed CVSS metric (S:C) reflects the real danger: a successful payload can hijack an admin session, modify site content, or silently escalate attacker privileges. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress session with at least subscriber-level privileges, as confirmed by PR:L in the CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 Medium reflects a balanced but meaningful risk profile. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker registers a subscriber account on a WordPress site with open registration enabled and running the vulnerable plugin version, then submits a crafted input containing a JavaScript payload to a plugin field accessible at subscriber privilege level. When an administrator subsequently loads the plugin management page or affected front-end view, the stored payload executes silently in the admin's browser, enabling session cookie theft or unauthorized administrative actions.
Remediation Update the WP Cookie Notice for GDPR, CCPA & ePrivacy Consent plugin to a version above 4.3.9 as soon as a patched release is confirmed available; monitor the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/gdpr-cookie-consent/vulnerability/wordpress-wp-cookie-notice-for-gdpr-ccpa-eprivacy-consent-plugin-4-3-9-cross-site-scripting-xss-vulnerability) and the WordPress plugin repository for the confirmed fix version, which has not been independently verified in the available intelligence at time of analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
