ALERT!!! Jetzt Update installieren: WordPress behebt XSS-Lücke | Blogs | Blogging | CyberSecurity | Updates | WordPress and Annotum for Education, Science,Journal Publishing | Scoop.it

From www.heise.de - January 7, 2016 10:34 AM

Gust MEES's insight:

Über eine Cross-Site-Scripting-Schwachstelle können Angreifer WordPress-Installationen kompromittieren. Betroffen sind alle Versionen bis einschließlich WordPress 4.4.

Mit einem Wartungs-Update beheben die Entwickler des Content-Management-Systems WordPress insgesamt 52 Bugs, die seit erscheinen Version 4.4 gefunden wurden. Admins, die Auto-Updates deaktiviert haben, sollten WordPress 4.4.1 schnellstmöglich manuell installieren, da das Update auch eine Cross-Site-Scripting-Lücke (XSS) behebt, über die Angreifer das CMS kompromittieren können.

Gust MEES's insight:

Vulnerable websites can be exploited via XSS to steal user accounts, change settings or phish passwords from unsuspecting users.

In fact, XSS flaws are one of the most commonly encountered security flaws found on websites.

Patching is obviously sensible and should be undertaken at the earliest opportunity, but never forget that additional layers of protection can go beyond patches – and perhaps be proactive in defending your systems from abuse during the time when no official fixes are available.
