Unauthorized actions via missing nonce validation
Published Jun 6, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in WP Legal Pages WPLP Cookie Consent 3.8.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to force unauthorized actions. An unspecified plugin function omits or incorrectly performs WordPress nonce validation, so a forged request is accepted with the victim's session. Exploitation requires a logged-in administrator to click a malicious link or visit a crafted page; public sources do not identify the exact action or data changed.
