wordpress - several

Several vulnerabilities were identified in WordPress, a web blogging
tool. As the CVEs were allocated from releases announcements and
specific fixes are usually not identified, it has been decided to
upgrade the wordpress package to the latest upstream version instead of
backporting the patches.

This means extra care should be taken when upgrading, especially when
using third-party plugins or themes, since compatibility may have been
impacted along the way. We recommend that users check their install
before doing the upgrade.

• CVE-2013-2173
  A denial of service was found in the way WordPress performs hash
  computation when checking password for protected posts. An attacker
  supplying carefully crafted input as a password could make the
  platform use excessive CPU usage.
• CVE-2013-2199
  Multiple server-side requests forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities were
  found in the HTTP API. This is related to
  CVE-2013-0235,
  which was specific to SSRF in pingback requests and was fixed in 3.5.1.
• CVE-2013-2200
  Inadequate checking of a user’s capabilities could lead to a
  privilege escalation, enabling them to publish posts when their
  user role should not allow for it and to assign posts to other
  authors.
• CVE-2013-2201
  Multiple cross-side scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities due to badly
  escaped input were found in the media files and plugins upload forms.

  plugin.
