"Simon Scannell of Ripstech Technologies discovered multiple
vulnerabilities in wordpress, a web blogging manager.

CVE-2019-8942

remote code execution in wordpress because an _wp_attached_file Post
Meta entry can be changed to an arbitrary string, such as one ending
with a .jpg?file.php substring. An attacker with author privileges can
execute arbitrary code by uploading a crafted image containing PHP
code in the Exif metadata.

CVE-2019-9787

wordpress does not properly filter comment content, leading to Remote
Code Execution by unauthenticated users in a default configuration.
This occurs because CSRF protection is mishandled, and because Search
Engine Optimization of A elements is performed incorrectly, leading to
XSS. The XSS results in administrative access.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version
4.1.26+dfsg-1+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your wordpress packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
