2description: 'Detects WordPress core path traversal in page template resolution (CVE-2026-87902)'
3rules:
4  # WP sanitizes 'pagename' with sanitize_title_for_query() before get_page_template()
5  # urldecodes it, so only percent-encoded dots and slashes can reach the traversal.
6  # Literal '../' never survives; anything outside [%a-z0-9 _-] is dropped, so the
7  # encoded octets may be split by characters WordPress strips.
