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.

Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in Wordpress before 2.2.3 and Wordpress multi-user (MU) before 1.2.5a allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the post_type parameter to the pingback.extensions.getPingbacks method in the XMLRPC interface, and other unspecified parameters related to "early database escaping" and missing validation of "query string like parameters."
