manager. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies
the following problems :

  - CVE-2008-6762
    It was discovered that wordpress is prone to an open
    redirect vulnerability which allows remote attackers to
    conduct phishing attacks.

  - CVE-2008-6767
    It was discovered that remote attackers had the ability
    to trigger an application upgrade, which could lead to a
    denial of service attack.

  - CVE-2009-2334
    It was discovered that wordpress lacks authentication
    checks in the plugin configuration, which might leak
    sensitive information.

  - CVE-2009-2854
    It was discovered that wordpress lacks authentication
    checks in various actions, thus allowing remote
    attackers to produce unauthorised edits or additions.

  - CVE-2009-2851
    It was discovered that the administrator interface is
    prone to a cross-site scripting attack.

  - CVE-2009-2853
    It was discovered that remote attackers can gain
    privileges via certain direct requests.

  - CVE-2008-1502
    It was discovered that the _bad_protocol_once function
    in KSES, as used by wordpress, allows remote attackers
    to perform cross-site scripting attacks.

  - CVE-2008-4106
    It was discovered that wordpress lacks certain checks
    around user information, which could be used by
    attackers to change the password of a user.

  - CVE-2008-4769
    It was discovered that the get_category_template
    function is prone to a directory traversal
    vulnerability, which could lead to the execution of
    arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2008-4796
    It was discovered that the _httpsrequest function in the
    embedded snoopy version is prone to the execution of
    arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in https
    URLs.

  - CVE-2008-5113
    It was discovered that wordpress relies on the REQUEST
    superglobal array in certain dangerous situations, which
    makes it easier to perform attacks via crafted cookies."
