CVSS v3.1 |
| Before version 4.8.2, WordPress was susceptible to a Cross-Site Scripting attack in the link modal via a javascript: or data: URL. |
| In WordPress before 4.7.3, there is cross-site request forgery (CSRF) in Press This (wp-admin/includes/class-wp-press-this.php), leading to excessive use of server resources. The CSRF can trigger an outbound HTTP request for a large file that is then parsed by Press This. |
| Before version 4.8.2, WordPress was vulnerable to cross-site scripting in oEmbed discovery. |
| In WordPress before 4.7.5, a Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability exists in the filesystem credentials dialog because a nonce is not required for updating credentials. |
| WordPress before 4.8.3 is affected by an issue where $wpdb->prepare() can create unexpected and unsafe queries leading to potential SQL injection (SQLi) in plugins and themes, as demonstrated by a "double prepare" approach, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-14723. |
| In WordPress before 4.7.3 (wp-admin/js/tags-box.js), there is cross-site scripting (XSS) via taxonomy term names. |
| In WordPress before 4.7.3 (wp-admin/plugins.php), unintended files can be deleted by administrators using the plugin deletion functionality. |
| SQL injection vulnerability in wp-includes/class-wp-query.php in WP_Query in WordPress before 4.7.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands by leveraging the presence of an affected plugin or theme that mishandles a crafted post type name. |
| wp-mail.php in WordPress before 4.7.1 might allow remote attackers to bypass intended posting restrictions via a spoofed mail server with the mail.example.com name. |
| wp-includes/rest-api/endpoints/class-wp-rest-users-controller.php in the REST API implementation in WordPress 4.7 before 4.7.1 does not properly restrict listings of post authors, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a wp-json/wp/v2/users request. |
| Directory traversal vulnerability in the wp_ajax_update_plugin function in wp-admin/includes/ajax-actions.php in WordPress 4.5.3 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service or read certain text files via a .. (dot dot) in the plugin parameter to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php, as demonstrated by /dev/random read operations that deplete the entropy pool. |
| wp-includes/functions.php in WordPress before 4.9.1 does not require the unfiltered_html capability for upload of .js files, which might allow remote attackers to conduct XSS attacks via a crafted file. |
| Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in wp-admin/includes/class-wp-posts-list-table.php in the posts list table in WordPress before 4.7.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted excerpt. |
| Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in wp-admin/update-core.php in WordPress before 4.7.1 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) name or (2) version header of a plugin. |
| Before version 4.8.2, WordPress was vulnerable to a cross-site scripting attack via shortcodes in the TinyMCE visual editor. |
| WordPress through 4.7.4 relies on the Host HTTP header for a password-reset e-mail message, which makes it easier for remote attackers to reset arbitrary passwords by making a crafted wp-login.php?action=lostpassword request and then arranging for this message to bounce or be resent, leading to transmission of the reset key to a mailbox on an attacker-controlled SMTP server. This is related to problematic use of the SERVER_NAME variable in wp-includes/pluggable.php in conjunction with the PHP mail function. Exploitation is not achievable in all cases because it requires at least one of the following: (1) the attacker can prevent the victim from receiving any e-mail messages for an extended period of time (such as 5 days), (2) the victim's e-mail system sends an autoresponse containing the original message, or (3) the victim manually composes a reply containing the original message. |
| Before version 4.8.2, WordPress allowed a Directory Traversal attack in the Customizer component via a crafted theme filename. |
| Before version 4.8.2, WordPress was susceptible to an open redirect attack in wp-admin/edit-tag-form.php and wp-admin/user-edit.php. |
| In WordPress before 4.7.5, there is a lack of capability checks for post meta data in the XML-RPC API. |
| In WordPress before 4.7.3, there is authenticated Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via Media File Metadata. This is demonstrated by both (1) mishandling of the playlist shortcode in the wp_playlist_shortcode function in wp-includes/media.php and (2) mishandling of meta information in the renderTracks function in wp-includes/js/mediaelement/wp-playlist.js. |
