Jouko Pynnonen discovered an unauthenticated cross site scripting
vulnerability (XSS) in wptexturize(), exploitable via comments or
posts.

CVE-2014-9033
Cross site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the password
changing process, which could be used by an attacker to trick an
user into changing her password.

CVE-2014-9034
Javier Nieto Arevalo and Andres Rojas Guerrero reported a potential
denial of service in the way the phpass library is used to handle
passwords, since no maximum password length was set.

CVE-2014-9035John Blackbourn reported an XSS in the Press This function (used
for quick publishing using a browser bookmarklet).

CVE-2014-9036
Robert Chapin reported an XSS in the HTML filtering of CSS in posts.

CVE-2014-9037
David Anderson reported a hash comparison vulnerability for
passwords stored using the old-style MD5 scheme. While unlikely,
this could be exploited to compromise an account, if the user had
not logged in after a Wordpress 2.5 update (uploaded to Debian on 2
Apr, 2008) and the password MD5 hash could be collided with due to
PHP dynamic comparison.

CVE-2014-9038
Ben Bidner reported a server side request forgery (SSRF) in the core
HTTP layer which unsufficiently blocked the loopback IP address
space.

CVE-2014-9039
Momen Bassel, Tanoy Bose, and Bojan Slavkovic reported a
vulnerability in the password reset process: an email address change
would not invalidate a previous password reset email.");
