CVE-2017-8295 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
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.
CVE-2017-5492 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 8.8 HIGH
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the widget-editing accessibility-mode feature in WordPress before 4.7.1 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of unspecified victims for requests that perform a widgets-access action, related to wp-admin/includes/class-wp-screen.php and wp-admin/widgets.php.
CVE-2016-6896 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 5.5 MEDIUM 7.1 HIGH
Directory traversal vulnerability in the wp_ajax_update_plugin function in wp-admin/includes/ajax-actions.php in WordPress 4.5.3 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service or read certain text files via a .. (dot dot) in the plugin parameter to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php, as demonstrated by /dev/random read operations that deplete the entropy pool.
CVE-2017-6818 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
In WordPress before 4.7.3 (wp-admin/js/tags-box.js), there is cross-site scripting (XSS) via taxonomy term names.
CVE-2017-14990 2 Debian, Wordpress 2 Debian Linux, Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
WordPress 4.8.2 stores cleartext wp_signups.activation_key values (but stores the analogous wp_users.user_activation_key values as hashes), which might make it easier for remote attackers to hijack unactivated user accounts by leveraging database read access (such as access gained through an unspecified SQL injection vulnerability).
CVE-2017-14722 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
Before version 4.8.2, WordPress allowed a Directory Traversal attack in the Customizer component via a crafted theme filename.
CVE-2012-6707 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
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.
CVE-2017-5610 2 Debian, Wordpress 2 Debian Linux, Wordpress 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 5.3 MEDIUM
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.
CVE-2017-14721 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
Before version 4.8.2, WordPress allowed Cross-Site scripting in the plugin editor via a crafted plugin name.
CVE-2017-9062 2 Debian, Wordpress 2 Debian Linux, Wordpress 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 8.6 HIGH
In WordPress before 4.7.5, there is improper handling of post meta data values in the XML-RPC API.
CVE-2017-1001000 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The register_routes function in wp-includes/rest-api/endpoints/class-wp-rest-posts-controller.php in the REST API in WordPress 4.7.x before 4.7.2 does not require an integer identifier, which allows remote attackers to modify arbitrary pages via a request for wp-json/wp/v2/posts followed by a numeric value and a non-numeric value, as demonstrated by the wp-json/wp/v2/posts/123?id=123helloworld URI.
CVE-2017-5612 2 Debian, Wordpress 2 Debian Linux, Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in wp-admin/includes/class-wp-posts-list-table.php in the posts list table in WordPress before 4.7.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted excerpt.
CVE-2017-14720 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
Before version 4.8.2, WordPress allowed a Cross-Site scripting attack in the template list view via a crafted template name.
CVE-2017-14724 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
Before version 4.8.2, WordPress was vulnerable to cross-site scripting in oEmbed discovery.
CVE-2017-14718 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
Before version 4.8.2, WordPress was susceptible to a Cross-Site Scripting attack in the link modal via a javascript: or data: URL.
CVE-2017-5490 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the theme-name fallback functionality in wp-includes/class-wp-theme.php in WordPress before 4.7.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted directory name of a theme, related to wp-admin/includes/class-theme-installer-skin.php.
CVE-2017-6815 2 Debian, Wordpress 2 Debian Linux, Wordpress 2025-04-20 5.8 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
In WordPress before 4.7.3 (wp-includes/pluggable.php), control characters can trick redirect URL validation.
CVE-2016-10148 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.0 MEDIUM 4.3 MEDIUM
The wp_ajax_update_plugin function in wp-admin/includes/ajax-actions.php in WordPress before 4.6 makes a get_plugin_data call before checking the update_plugins capability, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended read-access restrictions via the plugin parameter to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php, a related issue to CVE-2016-6896.
CVE-2017-5488 1 Wordpress 1 Wordpress 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM

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.
