WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

TranslatePress < 3.3.2 - Unauthenticated Account Takeover via Password Reset Link Disclosure

Description

The plugin is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the 'trp_get_translations_regular' AJAX action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract the raw administrator password-reset URL — including the plaintext reset key and login parameters stored in the translation dictionary table — enabling full administrator account takeover. This vulnerability is only exploitable when automatic string saving is enabled (the default setting) and the target administrator's profile locale is set to a published secondary language, as these conditions cause the password-reset URL to be persisted as a translatable string in the secondary-language dictionary table.
