Description

Vulnerability
================
WordPress Mobile Pack contains a PHP file which allows anybody – authenticated or otherwise – to read all public and password protected posts (draft and private posts appear not to be affected).

Create a password-protected post

Example output:

{
\"articles\": [
{
\"id\": 849,

\"timestamp\": 1406231170,
\"author\": \"admin\",
\"date\": \"Thu, Jul 24, 2014, 19:46\",
