Category:	Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2013-0285)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'php-phpmailer, wordpress' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2013-0285 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'php-phpmailer, wordpress' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2013-0285 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: wp-includes/functions.php in WordPress before 3.6.1 does not properly determine whether data has been serialized, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering erroneous PHP unserialize operations (CVE-2013-4338). WordPress before 3.6.1 does not properly validate URLs before use in an HTTP redirect, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended redirection restrictions via a crafted string (CVE-2013-4339). wp-admin/includes/post.php in WordPress before 3.6.1 allows remote authenticated users to spoof the authorship of a post by leveraging the Author role and providing a modified user_ID parameter (CVE-2013-4340). The get_allowed_mime_types function in wp-includes/functions.php in WordPress before 3.6.1 does not require the unfiltered_html capability for uploads of .htm and .html files, which might make it easier for remote authenticated users to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a crafted file (CVE-2013-5738). The default configuration of WordPress before 3.6.1 does not prevent uploads of .swf and .exe files, which might make it easier for remote authenticated users to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a crafted file, related to the get_allowed_mime_types function in wp-includes/functions.php (CVE-2013-5739). Additionally, php-phpmailer has been updated to a newer version required by the updated wordpress. Affected Software/OS: 'php-phpmailer, wordpress' package(s) on Mageia 2, Mageia 3. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 7.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
