Several vulnerabilities were discovered in wordpress, a web blogging tool,
which could allow remote attackers to compromise a site via cross-site
scripting, cross-site request forgery, path traversal, or bypass restrictions.

For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
version 4.1+dfsg-1+deb8u10.

We recommend that you upgrade your wordpress packages.
