    CVE-2006-0733

    Published: 16 Feb 2006Last Modified: 10 Apr 2026

    Summary:

    Details: Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in WordPress 2.0.0 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via scriptable attributes such as (1) onfocus and (2) onblur in the "author's website" field. NOTE: followup comments to the researcher's web log suggest that this issue is only exploitable by the same user who injects the XSS, so this might not be a vulnerability
