wordpress: multiple vulnerabilities

Package(s):wordpress CVE #(s):CVE-2007-0262 CVE-2007-0539 CVE-2007-0541
Created:February 13, 2007 Updated:February 14, 2007
Description: Wordpress does not properly verify that the m parameter value has the string data type, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via an invalid m[] parameter, as demonstrated by obtaining the path, and obtaining certain SQL information such as the table prefix. (CVE-2007-0262)

WordPress before 2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bandwidth or thread consumption) via pingback service calls with a source URI that corresponds to a large file, which triggers a long download session without a timeout constraint. (CVE-2007-0539)

WordPress allows remote attackers to determine the existence of arbitrary files, and possibly read portions of certain files, via pingback service calls with a source URI that corresponds to a local pathname, which triggers different fault codes for existing and non-existing files, and in certain configurations causes a brief file excerpt to be published as a blog comment. (CVE-2007-0541)
