Description: Thomas Waldegger has reported some vulnerabilities in WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed to the "tb_id" parameter in "wp-trackback.php" isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
2) Input passed to the "s" parameter in "edit.php" and the "p" parameter in "post.php" isn't properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of a vulnerable site.
It is also possible to disclose the full path to certain scripts by accessing them directly.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 1.5 and prior.
