CVE-2020-28033
WordPress before 4.7.19 mishandles embeds from disabled sites on a multisite network, as demonstrated by allowing a spam embed.
CVE-2020-28034
WordPress before 4.7.19 allows XSS associated with global variables.
CVE-2020-28035
WordPress before 4.7.19 allows attackers to gain privileges via XML-RPC.
CVE-2020-28036
wp-includes/class-wp-xmlrpc-server.php in WordPress before 4.7.19 allows attackers to gain privileges by using XML-RPC to comment on a post.
CVE-2020-28037
is_blog_installed in wp-includes/functions.php in WordPress before 4.7.19 improperly determines whether WordPress is already installed, which might allow an attacker to perform a new installation, leading to remote code execution (as well as a denial of service for the old installation).
CVE-2020-28038
WordPress before 4.7.19 allows stored XSS via post slugs.
CVE-2020-28039
is_protected_meta in wp-includes/meta.php in WordPress before 4.7.19 allows arbitrary file deletion because it does not properly determine whether a meta key is considered protected.
CVE-2020-28040
WordPress before 4.7.19 allows CSRF attacks that change a theme’s background image.
For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 4.7.19+dfsg-1+deb9u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your wordpress packages.
