Summary
The GDPR Framework By Data443 WordPress plugin before 2.4.0 does not properly verify authorization or the identity of the data subject when recording cookie-consent choices and privacy requests, allowing unauthenticated attackers to forge consent records for arbitrary email addresses and to flood the site's privacy-request queue with arbitrary entries.
