Missing Authorization in Cookie Notice Cache Purge and AJAX Handlers
Cookie Notice does not verify the current user’s capabilities before running several state-changing actions. The cache purge triggered by the hu_purge_cache frontend parameter requires no authentication at all, letting any visitor force repeated configuration requests to the vendor platform. Two admin AJAX handlers, the privacy consent form status and the conditional rule group values, also omit the capability check. Any site running Cookie Notice 2.5.10 or older is affected.
