-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2718-1 security@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.debian.org/security/ Yves-Alexis Perez July 01, 2013 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : wordpress Vulnerability : several Problem type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CVE-2013-2173 CVE-2013-2199 CVE-2013-2200 CVE-2013-2201 CVE-2013-2202 CVE-2013-2203 CVE-2013-2204 CVE-2013-2205 Debian Bug : 713947 Several vulnerabilities were identified in Wordpress, a web blogging tool. As the CVEs were allocated from releases announcements and specific fixes are usually not identified, it has been decided to upgrade the Wordpress package to the latest upstream version instead of backporting the patches. This means extra care should be taken when upgrading, especially when using third-party plugins or themes, since compatibility may have been impacted along the way. We recommend that users check their install before doing the upgrade. CVE-2013-2173 A denial of service was found in the way wordpress performs hash computation when checking password for protected posts. An attacker supplying carefully crafted input as a password could make the platform use excessive CPU usage CVE-2013-2199 Multiple server-side requests forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities were found in the HTTP API. This is related to CVE-2013-0235, which was specific to SSRF in pingback requests and was fixed in 3.5.1 CVE-2013-2200 Inadequate checking of a user's capabilities could lead to a privilege escalation, enabling them to publish posts when their user role should not allow for it and to assign posts to other authors CVE-2013-2201 Multiple cross-side scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities due to badly escaped input were found in the media files and plugins upload forms CVE-2013-2202 XML External Entity Injection (XXE) vulnerability via oEmbed responses CVE-2013-2203 A Full path disclosure (FPD) was found in the file upload mechanism.
