  • Oct 7, 2026OMGF | GDPR/DSGVO Compliant, Faster Google Fonts. Easy.: Stored Cross-Site ScriptingCVE-2026-89417 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.2

    The OMGF | GDPR/DSGVO Compliant, Faster Google Fonts. Easy. plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 's' Search Parameter via comments-atom Feed in all versions up to, and including, 6.3.10 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Successful exploitation requires that the front-end server serves the retained .tmp file without a Content-Type or X-Content-Type-Options header, enabling MIME-sniffing browsers such as Chromium to execute the injected script — a condition present by default on many Apache and nginx/php-fpm deployments.

Where this comes from: the exploited list is CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Everything else is the whole National Vulnerability Database, where each record is published by the team that found the bug (Wordfence, Patchstack, WPScan, the vendors themselves and others); we show who. Exploit odds are FIRST’s EPSS, updated daily. Titles and categories are ours, so check the linked record before acting on a detail. For a write-up of the big ones, see our advisories. Every vendor, and every WordPress plugin and theme with a recorded flaw, also has its own page. All of it is free to reuse as JSON, CSV or RSS.
