[GLSA-200611-10] WordPress: Multiple vulnerabilities |
||
WordPress: Multiple vulnerabilities Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200611-10 (WordPress: Multiple vulnerabilities) "random" discovered that users can enter serialized objects as strings in their profiles that will be harmful when unserialized. "adapter" found out that user-edit.php fails to effectively deny non-permitted users access to other user's metadata. Additionally, a directory traversal vulnerability in the wp-db-backup module was discovered. Impact By entering specially crafted strings in his profile, a possible hacker can crash PHP or even the web server running WordPress. Additionally, by crafting a simple URL, a possible hacker can read metadata of any other user, regardless of their own permissions. A user with the permission to use the database backup test can possibly overwrite files he otherwise has no access to. Workaround There is no known workaround at this time.
