CVE-2013-5739 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-5739):
  The default configuration of WordPress before 3.6.1 does not prevent uploads
  of .swf and .exe files, which might make it easier for remote authenticated
  users to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a crafted file,
  related to the get_allowed_mime_types function in wp-includes/functions.php.

CVE-2013-5738 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-5738):
  The get_allowed_mime_types function in wp-includes/functions.php in
  WordPress before 3.6.1 does not require the unfiltered_html capability for
  uploads of .htm and .html files, which might make it easier for remote
  authenticated users to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a
  crafted file.


Awaiting cleanup.
