Description
Ghost from 1.20.0 before 6.64.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability in theme translation file loading that allows authenticated administrators to read JSON files outside the active theme directory. Attackers can manipulate the locale setting to load JSON files elsewhere on the server, exposing server configuration secrets.
