NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream wordpress package and not the wordpress package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

WordPress and WordPress MU before 2.8.1 allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a direct request to wp-settings.php, which reveals the installation path in an error message.
