    Due to a lack of input validation, WordPress is vulnerable to SQL
    injection and XSS attacks.
  
Impact :

    An attacker could use the SQL injection vulnerabilities to gain
    information from the database. Furthermore the cross-site scripting
    issues give an attacker the ability to inject and execute malicious
    script code or to steal cookie-based authentication credentials,
    potentially compromising the victim's browser.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
