Several vulnerabilities have been fixed in Wordpress, the popular blogging engine.
CVE-2015-2213 SQL Injection allowed a remote attacker to compromise the site.
CVE-2015-5622 The robustness of the shortcodes HTML tags filter has been improved. The parsing is a bit more strict, which may affect your installation. This is the corrected version of the patch that needed to be reverted in DSA 3328-2.
CVE-2015-5730 A potential timing side-channel attack in widgets.
CVE-2015-5731 An attacker could lock a post that was being edited.
CVE-2015-5732 Cross site scripting in a widget title allows an attacker to steal sensitive information.
CVE-2015-5734 Fix some broken links in the legacy theme preview.

Baset.
