    Several vulnerabilities have been fixed in Wordpress, the popular
    blogging engine.

    CVE-2015-5714

    A cross-site scripting vulnerability when processing shortcode tags
    has been discovered.

    attributes.

    CVE-2015-5715

    A vulnerability has been discovered, allowing users without proper
    permissions to publish private posts and make them sticky.

    The issue has been fixed in the XMLRPC code of Wordpress by not
    allowing private posts to be sticky.

    Other issue(s)

    A cross-site scripting vulnerability in user list tables has been
    discovered.

    The issue has been fixed by URL-escaping email addresses in those
    user lists.

    For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), these problems will be fixed
    in later update.

    For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
    version 4.1+dfsg-1+deb8u5.

    in version 4.3.1+dfsg-1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 4.3.1+dfsg-1.
