Debian Bug : 851310 852767
Several vulnerabilities were discovered in wordpress, a web blogging
tool. They would allow remote attackers to hijack victims'
credentials, access sensitive information, execute arbitrary commands,
bypass read and post restrictions, or mount denial-of-service attacks.
For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
version 4.1+dfsg-1+deb8u12.
For the testing (stretch) and unstable (sid) distributions, these
problems have been fixed in version 4.7.1+dfsg-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your wordpress packages.
