The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200603-01 (WordPress: SQL injection vulnerability)

Patrik Karlsson reported that WordPress 1.5.2 makes use of an     insufficiently filtered User Agent string in SQL queries related to     comments posting. This vulnerability was already fixed in the     2.0-series of WordPress.

Impact :

An attacker could send a comment with a malicious User Agent     parameter, resulting in SQL injection and potentially in the subversion     of the WordPress database. This vulnerability wouldn't affect WordPress     sites which do not allow comments or which require that comments go     through a moderator.

Workaround :

Disable or moderate comments on your WordPress blogs.
