Associated Vulnerability
Title:Transposh WordPress Translation <= 1.0.9.6 - Sensitive Information Disclosure (CVE-2022-2462)
Description:The Transposh WordPress Translation plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to sensitive information disclosure to unauthenticated users in versions up to, and including, 1.0.9.6. This is due to insufficient permissions checking on the 'tp_history' AJAX action and insufficient restriction on the data returned in the response. This makes it possible for unauthenticated users to exfiltrate usernames of individuals who have translated text.
Description
WordPress Transposh plugin through is susceptible to information disclosure via the AJAX action tp_history, which is intended to return data about who has translated a text given by the token parameter. However, the plugin also returns the user's login name as part of the user_login attribute.  If an anonymous user submits the translation, the user's IP address is returned. An attacker can leak the WordPress username of translators and potentially execute other unauthorized operations.
