Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2015-04-24 07:33:28 UTC
From ${URL} :

The WordPress 4.1.2 release fixed a number of security issues:

WordPress versions 4.1.1 and earlier are affected by a critical cross-site scripting vulnerability, 
which could enable anonymous users to compromise a site. Other security issues include:

* In WordPress 4.1 and higher, files with invalid or unsafe names could be uploaded.

* In WordPress 3.9 and higher, a very limited cross-site scripting vulnerability could be used as 
part of a social engineering attack.

* Some plugins were vulnerable to an SQL injection vulnerability.

@maintainer(s): since the fixed version is already in the tree, please remove the affected versions.

Maintainer(s), please drop the vulnerable version(s).

There are quite a few versions that need to be dropped for security reasons. If for some reason they can not be dropped please advise.
