    Package : wordpress
    Vulnerability : several
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id(s) : CVE-2007-1599 CVE-2008-0664
    Debian Bug : 437085 464170

    Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in Wordpress,
    the weblog manager. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
    identifies the following problems:

    CVE-2007-1599

    WordPress allows remote attackers to redirect authenticated users
    to other websites and potentially obtain sensitive information.

    CVE-2008-0664

    The XML-RPC implementation, when registration is enabled, allows
    remote attackers to edit posts of other blog users.

    For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
    version 2.0.10-1etch3.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 2.3.3-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your wordpress package.

    Upgrade instructions
    - --------------------

    wget url
    will fetch the file for you
    dpkg -i file.deb
    will install the referenced file.

    If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
    sources.list as given below:

    apt-get update
    will update the internal database
    apt-get upgrade
    will install corrected packages

    You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
    footer to the proper configuration.
