Summary

The Cookie Notice & Compliance for GDPR / CCPA plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's cookies_accepted shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Risk Assessment

An attacker with contributor-level access can inject malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of users visiting the injected page, potentially leading to data theft or session hijacking.

Recommendation

Update the Cookie Notice & Compliance for GDPR / CCPA plugin to the latest version that fixes this vulnerability. Consider restricting contributor-level access if not needed.
