H guys
I have seen a similar code on my WAF being detected as XSS attack. But
further investigation proved it was false positive. In fact the code
is an AJAX code. Ajax code has JS code in URL.
Just thought might help :D

Looks like some bad stuff like xss. Changing the encoding, I get
things like below. I'm a beginner so I can't tell you anything in
depth, but it looks like it's trying to grab cookies and play with a
timer on the site? If the request is working, check with the plugin's
author and see what they know about this?

+ "=");
if (c_start!=-1)    |     c_start=c_start + c_name.length+1;

c_end=document.cookie.indexOf(";",c_start);

if (c_end==-1)
c_end=document.cookie.length;
return unescape(document.cookie.substring(c_start,c_end));
