Other vulnerabilities in WPLP Cookie Consent
See all- CVE-2026-75865Critical
The WPLP Cookie Consent plugin for WordPress up to version 4.4.1 is vulnerable to arbitrary file upload due to missing file type validation in the saas_upload_logo() function combined with an authorization bypass on the WPLP connector REST endpoints. This allows unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the server, potentially leading to remote code execution.
- CVE-2026-85131Medium
The WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.4 does not perform CSRF or capability checks when processing bulk actions on its administration screens, and does not restrict the targeted items to its own records. This allows attackers to make a logged in admin permanently delete arbitrary posts and pages via a crafted request.
- CVE-2026-14989High
The Cookie Banner for GDPR / CCPA – WPLP Cookie Consent plugin for WordPress up to version 4.4.1 is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'wpl_user_preference' parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
