Background ========== WordPress is a PHP and MySQL based content management and publishing system. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 www-apps/wordpress < 1.5.1.3 >= 1.5.1.3 Description =========== James Bercegay of the GulfTech Security Research Team discovered that WordPress insufficiently checks data passed to the XML-RPC server. He also discovered that WordPress has several cross-site scripting and full path disclosure vulnerabilities. Impact ====== An attacker could use the PHP script injection vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary PHP script commands. Furthermore the cross-site scripting vulnerabilities could be exploited to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session in context of a vulnerable site. Workaround ========== There are no known workarounds at this time. Resolution ========== All WordPress users should upgrade to the latest available version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/wordpress-1.5.1.3" References ========== [ 1 ] CAN-2005-1921 http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-1921 [ 2 ] GulfTech Advisory http://www.gulftech.org/?node=research&article_id=00085-06282005 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200507-02.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
