Description Martin Prpič 2015-04-23 09:59:15 UTC

The WordPress 4.1.2 release fixed a number of security issues:

WordPress versions 4.1.1 and earlier are affected by a critical cross-site scripting vulnerability, which could enable anonymous users to compromise a site. Other security issues include:

* In WordPress 4.1 and higher, files with invalid or unsafe names could be uploaded.

* In WordPress 3.9 and higher, a very limited cross-site scripting vulnerability could be used as part of a social engineering attack.

* Some plugins were vulnerable to an SQL injection vulnerability.
