The Incutio XML-RPC (IXR) Library, as used in WordPress before 3.9.2 and
Drupal 6.x before 6.33 and 7.x before 7.31, permits entity declarations
without considering recursion during entity expansion, which allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a
crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity references,
a similar issue to CVE-2003-1564.
