Critical security Updates at Cisco and critical cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in WordPress 4.2.2.

Connectikpeople.co recalls that Cisco has released security updates to address vulnerabilities in its Application Policy Infrastructure Controller, IOS software, and the Unified MeetingPlace Conferencing products. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities may allow a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access, cause a denial-of-service condition, or take control of the affected application.

So Connectikpeople.co encourages users and administrators to review the Cisco Security Advisories cisco-sa-20150722-apic, cisco-sa-20150722-tftp, and cisco-sa-20150722-mp and apply the necessary updates.

Connectikpeople.co also recalls that WordPress 4.2.2 and prior versions contain critical cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow a remote attacker to take control of an affected website.

Therefore, users and administrators are encouraged to review the WordPress Security and Maintenance Release and upgrade to WordPress 4.2.3.
