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 Smile

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.
