RETIRED: WordPress P Parameter SQL Injection Vulnerability

WordPress is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in an SQL query.

A successful exploit could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database.

This issue affects WordPress 2.3.1; other versions may also be vulnerable.

UPDATE: This BID is being retired because the issue is not exploitable in the manner described. The specified parameter is converted to an integer.
