CVE-2024-8397
The webtoffee-gdpr-cookie-consent WordPress plugin before 2.6.1 does not properly sanitize and escape the IP headers when logging them, allowing visitors to conduct Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.31%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
