So the inside plastic of my washer-dryer had a crack for a while.... One or two drops found their way in the inside... But now out of nowhere it now has three cracks in total.

Does anyone have any idea how and with what I could glue this? It has to last a few months...

Will throw it away when I move next year... So it doesn't have to look good...

@Kuraiko Check the labels on bathroom or wet area caulk/sealant - many are designed to work on glazed ceramic tiles, so theoretically they should also work on plastic, and designed to handle being immersed. (Is there an easy way to find out exactly what kind of plastic this is? Sometimes they'll only work on a few kinds, and I'm not sure how easy it is to tell at a glance.)

Unfortunately I'm not sure if there are any epoxy resins or similar that are designed to be okay for use in a wet area.
