Does anyone have or know how to obtain administrative access on Wordpress? (I mean on the WP server, not someone's blog hosted remotely.) Is there a cookie one can forge to get admin access? |

If you can find the wordpress version, then we can start to look at possible exploits you can use to attack the blog |

Thanks Lenny, but how would I determine which version of Wordpress by looking at the blog? |

Look at the sourcecode, mostly you'll find something like this:
Code: | name="generator" content="WordPress *.*.*" |
* <--- version

I see, but upon viewing the page source, the tag you cited reads:
Code: | name=“generator” content=“WordPress.com” /> <!-- leave this for stats -->
|
I could not find any version number labeled as such in the source code, but on several blogs, I found RSS 2.0 instead.
In either case, BlogSecurity.net lists vulnerabilities with the many versions of Wordpress on this page. |
