"The WP Super Cache Plugin for WordPress installed on the remote host
is affected by a remote PHP code execution vulnerability due to a
failure to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An unauthenticated,
remote attacker can submit a comment to a WordPress blog containing
arbitrary PHP code. The blog comments can contain dynamic content that
is ignored by the WordPress core, but when the cached version of the
page is loaded, the code left in the comment will execute. This allows
the attacker to execute arbitrary code, subject to the privileges of
the web server user id.
This issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-2009.
Note that the plugin is reportedly also affected by a cross-site
scripting vulnerability; however, Nessus has not tested for this
issue.
Also note that this plugin will post comments to the site, and it is
recommended that the comments are removed from within the WordPress
admin panel.");
