Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions SWFUpload versions 2.2.0.1 and earlier WordPress versions prior to 3.3.2 TinyMCE Image Manager version 1.1

Description A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the movieName parameter, related to the ExternalInterface.call function. This could potentially lead to unauthorized actions on behalf of the user.

For WordPress versions prior to 3.3.2, update to version 3.3.2 or later. For TinyMCE Image Manager version 1.1, avoid using the movieName parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved.
