Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the AdminPanel in WordPress 2.1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to perform privileged actions as administrators, as demonstrated using the delete action in wp-admin/post.php. NOTE: this issue can be leveraged to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and steal cookies via the post parameter.
