The mndpsingh287 File Manager plugin V2.9 for WordPress has XSS via the lang parameter in a wp-admin/admin.php?page=wp_file_manager request because set_transient is used in file_folder_manager.php and there is an echo of lang in lib\wpfilemanager.php.
Automated scanner template
A ready-made Nuclei template detects this vulnerability automatically. Vulnerabilities with public scanner templates are typically probed across the internet soon after the template appears — exposed systems should be patched first.
