id: CVE-2017-5487
info:
name: WordPress Core <4.7.1 - Username Enumeration
author: Manas_Harsh,daffainfo,geeknik,dr0pd34d
severity: medium
description: WordPress Core before 4.7.1 is susceptible to user enumeration because it does not properly restrict listings of post authors via wp-includes/rest-api/endpoints/class-wp-rest-users-controller.php in the REST API, which allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information via a wp-json/wp/v2/users request.
remediation: |
Update WordPress to version 4.7.1 or later
