WordPress allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bandwidth or thread consumption) via pingback service calls with a source URI that corresponds to a file with a binary content type, which is downloaded even though it cannot contain usable pingback data.

wp-admin/setup-config.php in the installation component in WordPress 3.3.1 and earlier does not limit the number of MySQL queries sent to external MySQL database servers, which allows remote attackers to use WordPress as a proxy for brute-force attacks or denial of service attacks via the dbhost parameter, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-4898. NOTE: the vendor disputes the significance of this issue because an incomplete WordPress installation might be present on the network for only a short time

In WordPress through 4.9.2, unauthenticated attackers can cause a denial of service (resource consumption) by using the large list of registered .js files (from wp-includes/script-loader.php) to construct a series of requests to load every file many times.

The oEmbed protocol implementation in WordPress before 4.5.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

wp-admin/setup-config.php in the installation component in WordPress 3.3.1 and earlier generates different error messages for requests lacking a dbname parameter depending on whether the MySQL credentials are valid, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute-force attacks via a series of requests with different uname and pwd parameters. NOTE: the vendor disputes the significance of this issue; also, it is unclear whether providing intentionally vague error messages during installation would be reasonable from a usability perspective

wp-includes/class-phpass.php in 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 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a long password that is improperly handled during hashing, a similar issue to CVE-2014-9016.

The Incutio XML-RPC (IXR) Library, as used in WordPress before 3.9.2 and Drupal 6.x before 6.33 and 7.x before 7.31, permits entity declarations without considering recursion during entity expansion, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity references, a similar issue to CVE-2003-1564.

The Incutio XML-RPC (IXR) Library, as used in WordPress before 3.9.2 and Drupal 6.x before 6.33 and 7.x before 7.31, does not limit the number of elements in an XML document, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a large document, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-5265.

The get_allowed_mime_types function in wp-includes/functions.php in WordPress before 3.6.1 does not require the unfiltered_html capability for uploads of .htm and .html files, which might make it easier for remote authenticated users to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a crafted file.

In WordPress before 4.7.5, there is a lack of capability checks for post meta data in the XML-RPC API.

WordPress before 3.6.1 does not properly validate URLs before use in an HTTP redirect, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended redirection restrictions via a crafted string.

moxieplayer.as in Moxiecode moxieplayer, as used in the TinyMCE Media plugin in WordPress before 3.5.2 and other products, does not consider the presence of a # (pound sign) character during extraction of the QUERY_STRING, which allows remote attackers to pass arbitrary parameters to a Flash application, and conduct content-spoofing attacks, via a crafted string after a ? (question mark) character.

kg_callffmpeg.php in the Video Embed & Thumbnail Generator plugin before 2.0 for WordPress allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via unspecified vectors.

WP-Syntax plugin 0.9.1 and earlier for Wordpress, with register_globals enabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via the test_filter[wp_head] array parameter to test/index.php, which is used in a call to the call_user_func_array function.

WordPress 2.7.1 places the username of a post's author in an HTML comment, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading the HTML source.

wp_kses_bad_protocol in wp-includes/kses.php in WordPress before 5.3.1 mishandles the HTML5 colon named entity, allowing attackers to bypass input sanitization, as demonstrated by the javascript: substring.

WordPress version <4.9 contains a CWE-20 Input Validation vulnerability in thumbnail processing that can result in remote code execution. This attack appears to be exploitable via thumbnail upload by an authenticated user and may require additional plugins in order to be exploited however this has not been confirmed at this time. This issue appears to have been partially, but not completely fixed in WordPress 4.9

WordPress through 4.8.2, when domain-based flashmediaelement.swf sandboxing is not used, allows remote attackers to conduct cross-domain Flash injection (XSF) attacks by leveraging code contained within the wp-includes/js/mediaelement/flashmediaelement.swf file.

wp-includes/http.php in 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 allows remote attackers to conduct server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks by referring to a 127.0.0.0/8 resource.

In WordPress before 4.9.9 and 5.x before 5.0.1, authors could bypass intended restrictions on post types via crafted input.

wp-admin/options.php in WordPress MU before 1.3.2, and WordPress 2.3.2 and earlier, does not properly validate requests to update an option, which allows remote authenticated users with manage_options and upload_files capabilities to execute arbitrary code by uploading a PHP script and adding this script's pathname to active_plugins.

The SpamBam plugin for WordPress allows remote attackers to bypass restrictions and add blog comments by using server-supplied values to calculate a shared key.

WordPress before 2.6.2 does not properly handle MySQL warnings about insertion of username strings that exceed the maximum column width of the user_login column, and does not properly handle space characters when comparing usernames, which allows remote attackers to change an arbitrary user's password to a random value by registering a similar username and then requesting a password reset, related to a "SQL column truncation vulnerability." NOTE: the attacker can discover the random password by also exploiting CVE-2008-4107.

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in upload.php in the Giulio Ganci Wp Downloads Manager module 0.2 for WordPress allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with an executable extension via the upfile parameter, then accessing it via a direct request to the file in wp-content/plugins/downloads-manager/upload/.

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in WordPress 2.5.1 and earlier might allow remote authenticated administrators to upload and execute arbitrary PHP files via the Upload section in the Write Tabs area of the dashboard.

In WordPress before 4.7.3 (wp-includes/pluggable.php), control characters can trick redirect URL validation.

Open redirect vulnerability in age-verification.php in the Age Verification plugin 0.4 and earlier for WordPress allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via a URL in the redirect_to parameter.

WordPress 2.1.1, as downloaded from some official distribution sites during February and March 2007, contains an externally introduced backdoor that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via (1) an eval injection vulnerability in the ix parameter to wp-includes/feed.php, and (2) an untrusted passthru call in the iz parameter to wp-includes/theme.php.

WordPress 3.1 before 3.1.3 and 3.2 before Beta 2 does not prevent rendering for (1) admin or (2) login pages inside a frame in a third-party HTML document, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct clickjacking attacks via a crafted web site.

WordPress version 4.9.8 and earlier contains a CWE-20 Input Validation vulnerability in thumbnail processing that can result in remote code execution due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-1000600. This attack appears to be exploitable via thumbnail upload by an authenticated user and may require additional plugins in order to be exploited however this has not been confirmed at this time.

Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, and 4.7 allow an attacker to send specially crafted requests to a .NET web application, resulting in denial of service, aka .NET Denial of Service Vulnerability.

The PPTP-ALG component in CRS Carrier Grade Services Engine (CGSE) and ASR 9000 Integrated Service Module (ISM) in Cisco IOS XR allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (module reset) via crafted packet streams, aka Bug ID CSCue91963.

The SIP channel driver (channels/chan_sip.c) in Asterisk Open Source 1.8.x before 1.8.23.1, 10.x before 10.12.3, and 11.x before 11.5.1; Certified Asterisk 1.8.15 before 1.8.15-cert3 and 11.2 before 11.2-cert2; and Asterisk Digiumphones 10.x-digiumphones before 10.12.3-digiumphones allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference, segmentation fault, and daemon crash) via an invalid SDP that defines a media description before the connection description in a SIP request.

An incorrect "pair?" check in the Scheme "length" procedure results in an unsafe pointer dereference in all CHICKEN Scheme versions prior to 4.13, which allows an attacker to cause a denial of service by passing an improper list to an application that calls "length" on it.

The qemu-nbd server in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator), when built with the Network Block Device (NBD) Server support, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and server crash) by leveraging failure to ensure that all initialization occurs before talking to a client in the nbd_negotiate function.

In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.6, the IPv6 dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-ipv6.c by validating an IPv6 address.

The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid read of size 1 because the existing reloc offset range tests didn't catch small negative offsets less than the size of the reloc field. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as objdump, to crash.

In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.6 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.12, the RGMP dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-rgmp.c by validating an IPv4 address.
