Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'wordpress' package(s) announced via the DLA-236-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: In the Debian squeeze-lts version of Wordpress, multiple security issues have been fixed: Remote attackers could... ... upload files with invalid or unsafe names ... mount social engineering attacks ... compromise a site via cross-site scripting ... inject SQL commands ... cause denial of service or information disclosure CVE-2014-9031 Jouko Pynnonen discovered an unauthenticated cross site scripting vulnerability (XSS) in wptexturize(), exploitable via comments or posts. CVE-2014-9033 Cross site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the password changing process, which could be used by an attacker to trick an user into changing her password. CVE-2014-9034 Javier Nieto Arevalo and Andres Rojas Guerrero reported a potential denial of service in the way the phpass library is used to handle passwords, since no maximum password length was set. CVE-2014-9035 John Blackbourn reported an XSS in the Press This function (used for quick publishing using a browser bookmarklet). CVE-2014-9036 Robert Chapin reported an XSS in the HTML filtering of CSS in posts. CVE-2014-9037 David Anderson reported a hash comparison vulnerability for passwords stored using the old-style MD5 scheme. While unlikely, this could be exploited to compromise an account, if the user had not logged in after a Wordpress 2.5 update (uploaded to Debian on 2 Apr, 2008) and the password MD5 hash could be collided with due to PHP dynamic comparison.

CVE-2014-9039 Momen Bassel, Tanoy Bose, and Bojan Slavkovic reported a vulnerability in the password reset process: an email address change would not invalidate a previous password reset email. CVE-2015-3438 Cedric Van Bockhaven reported and Gary Pendergast, Mike Adams, and Andrew Nacin of the WordPress security team fixed a cross-site-scripting vulnerabilitity, which could enable anonymous users to compromise a site. CVE-2015-3439 Jakub Zoczek discovered a very limited cross-site scripting vulnerability, that could be used as part of a social engineering attack. CVE-2015-3440 Jouko Pynnonen discovered a cross-site scripting vulnerability, which could enable commenters to compromise a site. Affected Software/OS: 'wordpress' package(s) on Debian 6. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
