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:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

WordPress allows remote attackers to determine the existence of arbitrary files, and possibly read portions of certain files, via pingback service calls with a source URI that corresponds to a local pathname, which triggers different fault codes for existing and non-existing files, and in certain configurations causes a brief file excerpt to be published as a blog comment.
