A new update to the TrustKeeper scan engine is being released, with several new vulnerability detections and numerous internal improvements. The new vulnerabilities detected include several that were fixed in the latest release of Wordpress, 3.3.2, including three cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities and a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) one.
This update also includes new vulnerability checks for the recent Microsoft Windows vulnerabilities covered by MS12-041 and MS12-042 and the recent Oracle "TNS Poison" vulnerability, which could potentially allow a remote attacker to cause Oracle Database clients to connect to a malicious server instead of the intended server.
Additionally, and as is often the case, this update includes improvements to evidence and other information that is reported when vulnerabilities are detected, in response to customer feedback.
