AI-suggested

Upgrade the WPLP Cookie Consent plugin to version 4.4.4 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. Until the upgrade, administrators should be cautious when interacting with logged entries originating from untrusted sources, especially in multisite environments.

Description

The WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin before 4.4.4 does not escape a value submitted through a public endpoint for the JavaScript context it is later output in on an administrative screen, allowing unauthenticated users to run arbitrary JavaScript in the session of an administrator who interacts with the logged entry. Only multisite installations are affected.
