Detail
| Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in wordpress, a weblog manager. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2007-3238 Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in functions.php in the default theme in WordPress allows remote authenticated administrators to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the PATH_INFO (REQUEST_URI) to wp-admin/themes.php. CVE-2007-2821 SQL injection vulnerability in wp-admin/admin-ajax.php in WordPress before 2.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the cookie parameter. CVE-2008-0193 Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in wp-db-backup.php in WordPress 2.0.11 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the backup parameter in a wp-db-backup.php action to wp-admin/edit.php. CVE-2008-0194 Directory traversal vulnerability in wp-db-backup.php in WordPress 2.0.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, delete arbitrary files, and cause a denial of service via a .. (dot dot) in the backup parameter in a wp-db-backup.php action to wp-admin/edit.php. For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 2.0.10-1etch1. Wordpress is not present in the oldstable distribution (sarge). We recommend that you upgrade your wordpress package. |

| 43408 | Wordpress wp-admin/edit.php backup Parameter XSS |
| 37293 | WordPress Default Theme functions.php XSS WordPress contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate variables upon submission to the 'functions.php' script. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity. |
| 37292 | WordPress Predictable Cookie Unmoderated Comment Disclosure |
| 36311 | WordPress wp-admin/admin-ajax.php cookie Parameter SQL Injection WordPress contains a flaw that may allow an attacker to carry out an SQL injection attack. The issue is due to the admin-ajax.php script not properly sanitizing user-supplied input to the Cookie variable. This may allow an attacker to inject or manipulate SQL queries in the back-end database. |
