CVE-2021-24586

MEDIUM

Per page add to head < 1.4.4 - Cross-Site Request Forgery and Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

The Per page add to head WordPress plugin before 1.4.4 is lacking any CSRF check when saving its settings, which could allow attackers to make a logged in admin change them. Furthermore, as the plugin allows arbitrary HTML to be inserted in one of the setting (feature mentioned by the plugin), this could lead to Stored XSS issue which will be triggered either in the backend, frontend or both depending on the payload used.
