"Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in wordpress,
a weblog manager. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems:

CVE-2007-3639

    WordPress allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service

    a source URI that corresponds to a file with a binary content type,
    which is downloaded even though it cannot contain usable pingback data.

    account to access the administrative interface."
