Source: wordpress
Version: 4.9.4-1
Severity: grave
Tags: security upstream
Justification: user security hole

WordPress 4.9.5 fixes 3 security issues:
1) Don't treat localhost as same host by default.
2) Use safe redirects when redirecting the login page if SSL is forced.
3) Make sure the version string is correctly escaped for use in generator tags.

The patches are:
1) 42894 - https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/42894
2) 42892 - https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/42892
3) 42893 - https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/42893

Sid, Buster, Stretch and Jessie all have these issues.
