WordPress Core through version 6.2 is vulnerable to directory traversal via the wp_lang parameter. An unauthenticated attacker can manipulate this parameter to access and load arbitrary translation files from unintended locations. The provided content further indicates that if an attacker is able to place a crafted translation file on the target site, for example through an upload capability, the issue may be leveraged to trigger cross-site scripting by causing WordPress to load attacker-controlled translation content.
