Published: 10/16/2026 (10/16/2026, 06:41:04 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: cozmoslabs
Product: TranslatePress – Translate Multilingual sites with AI Translation

Description

The TranslatePress – Translate Multilingual sites with AI Translation plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'comment' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation requires the target site to allow unmoderated comment submission on at least one post and to have a secondary language configured — both conditions reflect TranslatePress's primary use case.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-107768 describes a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the TranslatePress – Translate Multilingual sites with AI Translation WordPress plugin. Versions up to and including 3.3.7 are affected due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation, specifically via the 'comment' parameter. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary scripts that execute when users access the affected pages. Successful exploitation depends on the site allowing unmoderated comment submissions on at least one post and having a secondary language configured, conditions common in TranslatePress deployments.

Potential Impact

An attacker can inject persistent malicious scripts into pages viewed by other users, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or other client-side attacks. The vulnerability requires no authentication and has a low attack complexity, making it a significant risk for affected sites that meet the exploitation conditions. The CVSS score of 7.2 (high) reflects the confidentiality and integrity impact, with no availability impact.

Mitigation Recommendations

No official patch or fix is currently documented. Administrators should verify the vendor advisory for updates. As a temporary mitigation, disabling unmoderated comment submissions or removing secondary language configurations may reduce exposure. Monitoring for updates from the vendor is critical to apply an official fix once available.
