CVSS v3.1 |
| WordPress through 4.7.4 relies on the Host HTTP header for a password-reset e-mail message, which makes it easier for remote attackers to reset arbitrary passwords by making a crafted wp-login.php?action=lostpassword request and then arranging for this message to bounce or be resent, leading to transmission of the reset key to a mailbox on an attacker-controlled SMTP server. This is related to problematic use of the SERVER_NAME variable in wp-includes/pluggable.php in conjunction with the PHP mail function. Exploitation is not achievable in all cases because it requires at least one of the following: (1) the attacker can prevent the victim from receiving any e-mail messages for an extended period of time (such as 5 days), (2) the victim's e-mail system sends an autoresponse containing the original message, or (3) the victim manually composes a reply containing the original message. |
| WordPress before 4.8.3 is affected by an issue where $wpdb->prepare() can create unexpected and unsafe queries leading to potential SQL injection (SQLi) in plugins and themes, as demonstrated by a "double prepare" approach, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-14723. |
| Before version 4.8.2, WordPress allowed a Directory Traversal attack in the Customizer component via a crafted theme filename. |
| WordPress through 4.8.2 uses a weak MD5-based password hashing algorithm, which makes it easier for attackers to determine cleartext values by leveraging access to the hash values. NOTE: the approach to changing this may not be fully compatible with certain use cases, such as migration of a WordPress site from a web host that uses a recent PHP version to a different web host that uses PHP 5.2. These use cases are plausible (but very unlikely) based on statistics showing widespread deployment of WordPress with obsolete PHP versions. |
| wp-admin/includes/class-wp-press-this.php in Press This in WordPress before 4.7.2 does not properly restrict visibility of a taxonomy-assignment user interface, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by reading terms. |
| wp-includes/general-template.php in WordPress before 4.9.1 does not properly restrict the lang attribute of an HTML element, which might allow attackers to conduct XSS attacks via the language setting of a site. |
| Before version 4.8.2, WordPress was vulnerable to cross-site scripting in oEmbed discovery. |
| Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in WordPress before 4.7.1 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of unspecified victims via vectors involving a Flash file upload. |
| In WordPress before 4.7.5, a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists when attempting to upload very large files, because the error message does not properly restrict presentation of the filename. |
| WordPress before 3.7.5, 3.8.x before 3.8.5, 3.9.x before 3.9.3, and 4.x before 4.0.1 might allow remote attackers to obtain access to an account idle since 2008 by leveraging an improper PHP dynamic type comparison for an MD5 hash. |
| The oEmbed protocol implementation in WordPress before 4.5.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors. |
| Open redirect vulnerability in the wp_validate_redirect function in wp-includes/pluggable.php in WordPress before 4.4.2 allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via a malformed URL that triggers incorrect hostname parsing, as demonstrated by an https:example.com URL. |
| Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in plupload.flash.swf in Plupload before 2.1.9, as used in WordPress before 4.5.2, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a Same-Origin Method Execution (SOME) attack. |
| wp-includes/pluggable.php in WordPress before 3.9.2 does not use delimiters during concatenation of action values and uid values in CSRF tokens, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass a CSRF protection mechanism via a brute-force attack. |
| Directory traversal vulnerability in the Google Doc Embedder plugin before 2.5.4 for WordPress allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the file parameter to libs/pdf.php. |
| WordPress before 4.5 does not consider octal and hexadecimal IP address formats when determining an intranet address, which allows remote attackers to bypass an intended SSRF protection mechanism via a crafted address. |
| Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in videoplayer/autoplay.php in the HTML5 Video Player with Playlist plugin 2.4.0 and earlier for WordPress allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) theme or (2) playlistmod parameter. |
| Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the media-playlists feature in WordPress before 3.9.x before 3.9.3 and 4.x before 4.0.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors. |
| Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in wp-login.php in WordPress 3.7.4, 3.8.4, 3.9.2, and 4.0 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users for requests that reset passwords. |
| Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in fpg_preview.php in the Flash Photo Gallery plugin 0.7 and earlier for WordPress allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the path parameter. |
