Description

The Gtbabel plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to cookie stealing in all versions up to, and including, 6.6.8. This is due to the plugin transmitting cookie data via a URL. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to steal admin cookies which may make privilege escalation possible, if they can successfully trick in administrator into clicking a link.
