Cross-site Scripting (XSS) Affecting wordpress package, versions <3.0.4+dfsg-1

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:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

The KSES text cleaning filter in lib/weblib.php in Moodle before 1.8.13 and 1.9.x before 1.9.9 does not properly handle vbscript URIs, which allows remote authenticated users to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via HTML input.
