"**WordPress 4.7.5** is now available. This is a security release for
all previous versions and we strongly encourage you to update your
sites immediately.

WordPress versions 4.7.4 and earlier are affected by six security
issues :

  - Insufficient redirect validation in the HTTP class.
    Reported by Ronni Skansing.

  - Improper handling of post meta data values in the
    XML-RPC API. Reported by Sam Thomas.

  - Lack of capability checks for post meta data in the
    XML-RPC API. Reported by Ben Bidner of the WordPress
    Security Team.

  - A Cross Site Request Forgery (CRSF) vulnerability was
    discovered in the filesystem credentials dialog.
    Reported by Yorick Koster.

  - A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was
    discovered when attempting to upload very large files.
    Reported by Ronni Skansing.

  - A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was
    discovered related to the Customizer. Reported by Weston
    Ruter of the WordPress Security Team.

Thank you to the reporters of these issues for practicing responsible
disclosure.

In addition to the security issues above, WordPress 4.7.5 contains 3
maintenance fixes to the 4.7 release series. For more information, see
the [release notes](https://codex.wordpress.org/Version_4.7.5) or

possible without introducing additional issues."
