WordPress Core, in versions up to 6.0.2, is vulnerable to Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting that can be exploited by users with access to the WordPress post and page editor, typically consisting of Authors, Contributors, and Editors making it possible to inject arbitrary web scripts into posts and pages that execute if the the_meta(); function is called on that page.
WordPress does not properly restrict which user fields are searchable via the REST API, allowing unauthenticated attackers to discern the email addresses of users who have published public posts on an affected website via an Oracle style attack

WordPress Core is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in versions up to, and including, 6.2, via the ‘wp_lang’ parameter. This allows unauthenticated attackers to access and load arbitrary translation files. In cases where an attacker is able to upload a crafted translation file onto the site, such as via an upload form, this could be also used to perform a Cross-Site Scripting attack.
A vulnerability was found in dd32 Debug Bar Plugin up to 0.8 on WordPress. It has been declared as problematic. Affected by this vulnerability is the function render of the file panels/class-debug-bar-queries.php. The manipulation leads to cross site scripting. The attack can be launched remotely. Upgrading to version 0.8.1 is able to address this issue. The patch is named 0842af8f8a556bc3e39b9ef758173b0a8a9ccbfc. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.

WordPress through 6.1.1 depends on unpredictable client visits to cause wp-cron.php execution and the resulting security updates, and the source code describes "the scenario where a site may not receive enough visits to execute scheduled tasks in a timely manner," but neither the installation guide nor the security guide mentions this default behavior, or alerts the user about security risks on installations with very few visits.
