Base vector

AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WordPress versions prior to 2.1.1

Description A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) issue exists in the AdminPanel, allowing remote attackers to perform actions with administrator privileges. This can be exploited using the delete action in "wp-admin/post.php". Additionally, this issue can be used to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and steal cookies via the post parameter.

Recommendations For WordPress versions prior to 2.1.1, update to a version that addresses this issue to prevent exploitation. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the AdminPanel and the "wp-admin/post.php" endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the post parameter in sensitive operations until the issue is resolved.
