"According to its self-reported version number, the WordPress
application running on the remote web server is prior to 4.7.5.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A DOM-based cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability
    exists in the uploadSizeError() function within file
    wp-includes/js/plupload/handlers.js when handling overly
    large file uploads due to improper validation of
    user-supplied input to file names before returning it in
    error messages. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can
    exploit this, via a specially crafted request, to
    execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser
    session. (CVE-2017-9061)

  - A flaw exists in the set_custom_fields() function within
    file wp-includes/class-wp-xmlrpc-server.php when
    accessing post meta data due to improper validation of
    user-supplied input. An authenticated, remote attacker
    can exploit this to gain unauthorized access to meta
    data. (CVE-2017-9062)

  - A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists
    within file wp-admin/customize.php script due to
    improper validation of user-supplied input to the blog
    name before returning it to users. An authenticated,
    remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially
    crafted request, to execute arbitrary script code in a
    user's browser session. (CVE-2017-9063)

  - A cross-site request forgery (XSRF) vulnerability exists
    in the request_filesystem_credentials() function within
    file /wp-admin/includes/file.php due to a failure to
    require multiple steps, explicit confirmation, or a
    unique token when performing certain sensitive actions.
    An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this,
    by convincing a user to follow a specially crafted link,
    to disclose the user credentials. (CVE-2017-9064)

  - A flaw exists in the XML-RPC API, specifically within
    file wp-includes/class-wp-xmlrpc-server.php in the
    _insert_post() function, when handling post meta data
    due to a lack of capability checks. An unauthenticated,
    remote attacker can exploit this to manipulate posts
    without having the required capabilities.
    (CVE-2017-9065)

  - A flaw exists in the WP_Http::request() function within
    file wp-includes/class-http.php due to improper
    validation of user-supplied iput. An unauthenticated,
    remote attacker can exploit this to redirect the user to
    a URL of the attacker's choosing. (CVE-2017-9066)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead
relied only on the application's self-reported version number.");
