Upgrade Debian:unstable wordpress to version 3.3.2+dfsg-1 or higher.
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:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.
Plupload before 1.5.4, as used in wp-includes/js/plupload/ in WordPress before 3.3.2 and other products, enables scripting regardless of the domain from which the SWF content was loaded, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via crafted content.
