Descriptions

The WP-EMail WordPress plugin before 2.69.0 prioritizes getting a visitor's IP from certain HTTP headers over PHP's REMOTE_ADDR, which makes it possible to bypass IP-based anti-spamming restrictions.

El plugin WP-EMail de WordPress versiones anteriores a 2.69.0, prioriza la obtención de la IP de un visitante a partir de determinadas cabeceras HTTP por encima de REMOTE_ADDR de PHP, lo que hace posible omitir las restricciones anti-spamming basadas en la IP
