Descriptions

WordPress before 2.0.6, when mbstring is enabled for PHP, decodes alternate character sets after escaping the SQL query, which allows remote attackers to bypass SQL injection protection schemes and execute arbitrary SQL commands via multibyte charsets, as demonstrated using UTF-7.

WordPress anterior a 2.0.6, cuando mbstring está habilitado para PHP, decodifica juegos de caracteres alternativos tras escapar la petición SQL, lo cual permite a atacantes remotos evitar los esquemas de protección contra inyección SQL y ejecutar comandos SQL de su elección mediante juegos de caracteres multi-byte, como se ha demostrado utilizando UTF-7.
