WordpressCVEs & Vulnerabilities

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the administrator interface in WordPress before 2.8.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a comment author URL.

wp-login.php in WordPress 2.8.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to force a password reset for the first user in the database, possibly the administrator, via a key[] array variable in a resetpass (aka rp) action, which bypasses a check that assumes that $key is not an array.

WordPress and WordPress MU before 2.8.1 allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a direct request to wp-settings.php, which reveals the installation path in an error message.

WordPress 2.7.1 places the username of a post's author in an HTML comment, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading the HTML source.

The forgotten mail interface in WordPress and WordPress MU before 2.8.1 exhibits different behavior for a password request depending on whether the user account exists, which allows remote attackers to enumerate valid usernames. NOTE: the vendor reportedly disputes the significance of this issue, indicating that the behavior exists for "user convenience."

WordPress and WordPress MU before 2.8.1 exhibit different behavior for a failed login attempt depending on whether the user account exists, which allows remote attackers to enumerate valid usernames. NOTE: the vendor reportedly disputes the significance of this issue, indicating that the behavior exists for "user convenience."

wp-admin/admin.php in WordPress and WordPress MU before 2.8.1 does not require administrative authentication to access the configuration of a plugin, which allows remote attackers to specify a configuration file in the page parameter to obtain sensitive information or modify this file, as demonstrated by the (1) collapsing-archives/options.txt, (2) akismet/readme.txt, (3) related-ways-to-take-action/options.php, (4) wp-security-scan/securityscan.php, and (5) wp-ids/ids-admin.php files. NOTE: this can be leveraged for cross-site scripting (XSS) and denial of service.

Directory traversal vulnerability in getConfig.php in the Page Flip Image Gallery plugin 0.2.2 and earlier for WordPress, when magic_quotes_gpc is disabled, allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the book_id parameter. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

wp-admin/options.php in WordPress MU before 1.3.2, and WordPress 2.3.2 and earlier, does not properly validate requests to update an option, which allows remote authenticated users with manage_options and upload_files capabilities to execute arbitrary code by uploading a PHP script and adding this script's pathname to active_plugins.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the self_link function in in the RSS Feed Generator (wp-includes/feed.php) for WordPress before 2.6.5 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the Host header (HTTP_HOST variable).

WordPress 2.6.3 relies on the REQUEST superglobal array in certain dangerous situations, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct delayed and persistent cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks via crafted cookies, as demonstrated by attacks that (1) delete user accounts or (2) cause a denial of service (loss of application access). NOTE: this issue relies on the presence of an independent vulnerability that allows cookie injection.

The _httpsrequest function (Snoopy/Snoopy.class.php) in Snoopy 1.2.3 and earlier, as used in (1) ampache, (2) libphp-snoopy, (3) mahara, (4) mediamate, (5) opendb, (6) pixelpost, and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in https URLs.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the get_category_template function in wp-includes/theme.php in WordPress 2.3.3 and earlier, and 2.5, allows remote attackers to include and possibly execute arbitrary PHP files via the cat parameter in index.php. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in wpcommentremix.php in WP Comment Remix plugin before 1.4.4 for WordPress allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) replytotext, (2) quotetext, (3) originallypostedby, (4) sep, (5) maxtags, (6) tagsep, (7) tagheadersep, (8) taglabel, and (9) tagheaderlabel parameters.

SQL injection vulnerability in ajax_comments.php in the WP Comment Remix plugin before 1.4.4 for WordPress allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the p parameter.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in wp-admin/wp-blogs.php in Wordpress MU (WPMU) before 2.6 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) s and (2) ip_address parameters.

SQL injection vulnerability in stnl_iframe.php in the ShiftThis Newsletter (st_newsletter) plugin for WordPress allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the newsletter parameter, a different vector than CVE-2008-0683.

The SpamBam plugin for WordPress allows remote attackers to bypass restrictions and add blog comments by using server-supplied values to calculate a shared key.

WordPress before 2.6.2 does not properly handle MySQL warnings about insertion of username strings that exceed the maximum column width of the user_login column, and does not properly handle space characters when comparing usernames, which allows remote attackers to change an arbitrary user's password to a random value by registering a similar username and then requesting a password reset, related to a "SQL column truncation vulnerability." NOTE: the attacker can discover the random password by also exploiting CVE-2008-4107.

The (1) get_edit_post_link and (2) get_edit_comment_link functions in wp-includes/link-template.php in WordPress before 2.6.1 do not force SSL communication in the intended situations, which might allow remote attackers to gain administrative access by sniffing the network for a cookie.

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in upload.php in the Giulio Ganci Wp Downloads Manager module 0.2 for WordPress allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with an executable extension via the upfile parameter, then accessing it via a direct request to the file in wp-content/plugins/downloads-manager/upload/.

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in WordPress 2.5.1 and earlier might allow remote authenticated administrators to upload and execute arbitrary PHP files via the Upload section in the Write Tabs area of the dashboard.

wp-includes/vars.php in Wordpress before 2.2.3 does not properly extract the current path from the PATH_INFO ($PHP_SELF), which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions for certain pages.

SQL injection vulnerability in wp-download_monitor/download.php in the Download Monitor 2.0.6 plugin for WordPress allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the id parameter. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.

The cookie authentication method in WordPress 2.5 relies on a hash of a concatenated string containing USERNAME and EXPIRY_TIME, which allows remote attackers to forge cookies by registering a username that results in the same concatenated string, as demonstrated by registering usernames beginning with "admin" to obtain administrator privileges, aka a "cryptographic splicing" issue. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-6013.

SQL injection vulnerability in ss_load.php in the Spreadsheet (wpSS) 0.6 and earlier plugin for WordPress allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the ss_id parameter.

Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in wppa.php in the WP Photo Album (WPPA) before 1.1 plugin for WordPress allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via (1) the photo parameter to index.php, used by the wppa_photo_name function; or (2) the album parameter to index.php, used by the wppa_album_name function. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the log feature in the John Godley Search Unleashed 0.2.10 plugin for WordPress allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the s parameter, which is not properly handled when the administrator views the log file.
