WordPress before 5.1.1 does not properly filter comment content, leading to Remote Code Execution by unauthenticated users in a default configuration. This occurs because CSRF protection is mishandled, and because Search Engine Optimization of A elements is performed incorrectly, leading to XSS. The XSS results in administrative access, which allows arbitrary changes to .php files. This is related to wp-admin/includes/ajax-actions.php and wp-includes/comment.php.

WordPress, en versiones anteriores a la 5.1.1, no filtra correctamente el contenido, lo que conduce a la ejecución remota de código por parte de usuarios no autenticados en una configuración por defecto. Esto ocurre debido a que la protección CSRF se gestiona de manera incorrecta y porque la optimización del motor de búsqueda de los elementos A se realiza incorrectamente, lo que desemboca en Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). El XSS resulta en un acceso administrativo, lo que permite cambios arbitrarios en archivos .php. Esto está relacionado con wp-admin/includes/ajax-actions.php y wp-includes/comment.php.
