Descriptions

Plupload before 1.5.4, as used in wp-includes/js/plupload/ in WordPress before 3.3.2 and other products, enables scripting regardless of the domain from which the SWF content was loaded, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via crafted content.

Plupload antes de v1.5.4, tal y como se utiliza en wp-includes/js/plupload/ en WordPress antes de v3.3.2 y otros productos, permite ejecutar secuencias de comandos, independientemente del dominio desde el que se cargó el contenido SWF, lo que permite a atacantes remotos evitar la política de mismo origen a través de contenido malicioso.
