Descriptions

The wp_http_validate_url function in wp-includes/http.php in WordPress before 4.4.2 allows remote attackers to conduct server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks via a zero value in the first octet of an IPv4 address in the u parameter to wp-admin/press-this.php.

La función wp_http_validate_url en wp-includes/http.php en WordPress en versiones anteriores a 4.4.2 permite a atacantes remotos llevar a cabo ataques SSRF a través de un valor cero en el primer octeto de una dirección IPv4 en el parámetro u para wp-admin / press-this.php.
