Debian Security Advisory 1564-1 - Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in wordpress, a weblog manager. Multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities allowed remote authenticated administrators to inject arbitrary web script or HTML. SQL injection vulnerability allowed allowed remote authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary SQL commands. WordPress allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bandwidth or thread consumption) via pingback service calls with a source URI that corresponds to a file with a binary content type, which is downloaded even though it cannot contain usable pingback data. Insufficient input sanitising caused an attacker with a normal user account to access the administrative interface.
