Description Martin Prpič 2015-05-07 07:54:24 UTC

Two cross-site scripting flaws were found in WordPress:

* The Genericons icon font package, which is used in a number of popular themes and plugins, contained an HTML file vulnerable to a cross-site scripting attack.

* WordPress versions 4.2 and earlier are affected by a critical cross-site scripting vulnerability, which could enable anonymous users to compromise a site.

Both of these issues have been fixed in the 4.2.2 release of WordPress.
