    WordPress 4.7.3 Security Release

    By Graphic Detail | Marketing Blog | Comments are Closed | 7 March, 2017 | 0

    WordPress 4.7.3 has just been released. It is the third in a series of recent security releases for WordPress core.

    WordPress 4.7.2 was released on January 26th to fix a now famous WordPress defacement vulnerability. WordPress 4.7.1 was released on January 11th which fixed a vulnerability in PHPMailer.

    This new 4.7.3 core release fixes three Cross Site Scripting vulnerabilities:

    • Cross-site scripting (XSS) via media file metadata.
    • Cross-site scripting (XSS) via video URL in YouTube embeds.
    • Cross-site scripting (XSS) via taxonomy term names.

    It also fixed the following additional security issues:

    • Control characters can trick redirect URL validation.
    • Unintended files can be deleted by administrators using the plugin deletion functionality.
    • Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) in “Press This” leading to excessive use of server resources.

    WordPress 4.7.3 also contains 39 maintenance fixes to fix a range of non-security related issues. This release fixes multiple security vulnerabilities and now that the code changes are publicly visible, we may see attacks targeting these vulnerabilities emerge in the coming days.
