The WebToffee Cookie Consent WordPress plugin, which manages visitor cookie preferences and GDPR compliance, contains multiple REST API endpoints that lack authorization checks.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a missing authorization control (CWE-862) affecting multiple REST API routes in the WebToffee Cookie Consent plugin versions before 3.5.3. The vulnerable endpoints (/wcc/v1/consent_logs/export, /wcc/v1/consent_logs/delete, /wcc/v1/policies/create, /wcc/v1/license/deactivate) are network-reachable and require no authentication, nonce, or user interaction. An unauthenticated attacker can send POST requests to these routes to export consent logs as CSV files, bulk-delete all consent records, create arbitrary draft pages, or deactivate the plugin license. The fix is available in version 3.5.3.
