<blockquote><p>Juha-Matti pointed out multple reports on a vulnerability in the widely used wordpress blog software that supposedly allows lets remote users reset the administrative password. They all lead to an original post on a full disclosure mailing list.</p></blockquote>
<p>You can get all the details from the original post &#8211; <a href="http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=6934">WordPress unauthenticated administrator password reset<br />
</a></p>
<p>You can find the fix <a href="http://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/11798">here</a></p>
<p>Basically you just need to change line 190 in wp-login.php from<br />
 <em><strong>if ( empty( $key )</strong></em><br />
to<br />
 <em><strong>if ( empty( $key ) || is_array( $key ) </strong>)</em><br />
If line 190 in wp-login.php doesn&#8217;t match the example, you should update Word Press.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve already done it here and everything still works. I also tried it on a version of Word Press that isn&#8217;t the latest version. I had to search for the string that needed changing because it&#8217;s not on line 190 in the older version. I updated the info and everything is working there too.</p>
