What is CVE-2026-85131?
The WPLP Cookie Consent plugin for WordPress is susceptible to a vulnerability that allows attackers to perform unauthorized bulk actions on the administration screens. This occurs because the plugin fails to implement necessary CSRF and capability checks. As a result, a logged-in administrator could be tricked into executing a crafted request that permanently deletes arbitrary posts and pages, compromising the integrity of the site. It is crucial for users of versions prior to 4.4.4 to upgrade to ensure protection against this exploit.
