Package : wordpress
CVE ID : CVE-2014-0165 CVE-2014-0166
Debian Bug : 744018
The update of wordpress in DSA-2901-2 introduced a wrong versioned
dependency on libjs-cropper, making the package uninstallable in the
oldstable distribution (squeeze). This update corrects that problem.
For reference the original advisory text follows.
Several vulnerabilities were discovered in Wordpress, a web blogging
tool. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
following problems:
CVE-2014-0165
A user with a contributor role, using a specially crafted
request, can publish posts, which is reserved for users of the
next-higher role.
CVE-2014-0166
Jon Cave of the WordPress security team discovered that the
wp_validate_auth_cookie function in wp-includes/pluggable.php does
not properly determine the validity of authentication cookies,
allowing a remote attacker to obtain access via a forged cookie.
For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed
in version 3.6.1+dfsg-1~deb6u4.
We recommend that you upgrade your wordpress packages.
