CVE-2021-24379
The Comments Like Dislike WordPress plugin before 1.1.4 allows users to like/dislike posted comments, however does not prevent them from replaying the AJAX request to add a like.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.98%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
