## Description

The The GDPR Framework By Data443 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'donotsell_first_name' and 'donotsell_last_name' post meta of 'Do Not Sell' requests in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.1. This is due to insufficient output escaping: the values are printed raw through _e() in the Do Not Sell requests admin list table. Because the 'donotsellrequests' post type also used the default post capabilities and supports custom fields, a contributor can create a request post and set these meta values to arbitrary markup. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute whenever an administrator views the list of Do Not Sell requests.
