Summary
The Per page add to head WordPress plugin through 1.4.4 does not properly sanitise one of its setting, allowing malicious HTML to be inserted by high privilege users even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed, which could lead to Cross-Site Scripting issues.
Exploit prediction
0.62% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 49% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-08).
