- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.23% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Unknown WPLP Cookie Consent 4.4.2 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
The WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.2 does not perform nonce or capability checks on several of its settings AJAX actions, allowing any authenticated user, such as a subscriber, to read and destroy scan data belonging to the administrator and to overwrite the WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.2's stored configuration.
