CVE-2022-25812

The Transposh WordPress Translation plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized setting changes by unauthenticated users in versions up to, and including, 1.0.8.1. This is due to insufficient permissions checking on the 'tp_translation' AJAX action and default settings which makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to influence the data shown on the site.

Transposh WordPress Translation versions 1.0.8.1 and below have a "save_transposh" action available at "/wp-admin/admin.php?page=tp_advanced" that does not properly validate the "Log file name" allowing an attacker with the "Administrator" role to specify a .php file as the log destination. Since the log file is stored directly within the "/wp-admin" directory, executing arbitrary PHP code is possible by simply sending a crafted request that gets logged.
