+ <p>
+ WordPress is a PHP and MySQL based content management and
+ publishing system.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ 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.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ 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.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There are no known workarounds at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All WordPress users should upgrade to the latest available
+ version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-apps/wordpress-1.5.1.3"</code>
