Debian Bug     : 803100

The patch applied for CVE-2015-5622 in DSA-3332-1 contained a faulty
hunk. This update corrects that problem. For reference, the relevant
part of the original advisory text follows.

Several vulnerabilities have been fixed in Wordpress, the popular
blogging engine.

CVE-2015-5622

    The robustness of the shortcodes HTML tags filter has been
    improved. The parsing is a bit more strict, which may affect
    your installation. This is the corrected version of the patch
    that needed to be reverted in DSA 3328-2.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 4.1+dfsg-1+deb8u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your wordpress packages.
