DESCRIPTION:
A weakness has been discovered in the Simple History plugin for
WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose
potentially sensitive information.

The weakness is caused due to the plugin disclosing the "rss_secret"
within the source of the RSS feed, which can be exploited to gain
access to the RSS feed and e.g. disclose activated plugins, new
users, and unpublished posts.

The weakness is confirmed in version 1.0.7. Prior versions may also
be affected.
