This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This is exploitable by Subscriber-level users against other accounts because the AJAX handlers accept an arbitrary gdpr-user ID without verifying it belongs to the requester, and the required wpas-gdpr-nonce is emitted via wp_localize_script to every logged-in user on frontend plugin pages and on /wp-admin/profile.php.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","score":6.4},"cwes":["CWE-79"],"references":["https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/awesome-support/tags/6.4.0/includes/functions-general.php#L2190","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/awesome-support/tags/6.4.0/includes/functions-user.php#L1538","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/awesome-support/tags/6.4.0/includes/gdpr-integration/gdpr-privacy-options.php#L1111","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/awesome-support/tags/6.4.0/includes/gdpr-integration/gdpr-privacy-options.php#L1186","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/awesome-support/tags/6.4.0/includes/gdpr-integration/gdpr-user-profile.php#L250"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:57:46.668721662+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-96268","score":0.00195,"percentile":0.09126,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
