CVE-2026-84151
📛 CVE Title
The Post Grid < 7.9.5 - Contributor+ Stored HTML/iframe Injection via wp_kses_post Allow-List Widening
Description
The Post Grid WordPress plugin before 7.9.5 does not limit an expansion of the WordPress allowed-HTML list to its own markup and applies it site-wide, allowing users with the Contributor role and above to store iframe, style and input elements that are normally stripped from their content, leading to HTML injection (phishing frames, CSS defacement and spoofed input forms) that renders to any visitor and to administrators reviewing the content.

NVD triage scoring NVD CVE 2.0
Layer NVD adds on top of the CNA's CVE record — published / last-modified timestamps, exploitability / impact subscores, and the FIRST.org EPSS probability that this CVE will be exploited in the wild in the next 30 days.
- EPSS score
- 0.0016 (probability of exploitation in next 30 days)
- EPSS percentile
- 4.90% vs all CVEs — higher = more likely to be exploited, as of 2026-09-24
