WordPress 3.9.2 is now available as a security release for all
previous versions. We strongly encourage you to update your sites
immediately.

This release fixes a possible denial of service issue in PHP?s XML
processing, reported by Nir Goldshlager of the Salesforce.com Product
Security Team. It  was fixed by Michael Adams and Andrew Nacin of the
WordPress security team and David Rothstein of the Drupal security
team. This is the first time our two projects have coordinated on
joint security releases.

WordPress 3.9.2 also contains other security changes:

- -Fixes a possible but unlikely code execution when processing widgets
(WordPress is not affected by default), discovered by Alex Concha of
the WordPress security team.

- -Prevents information disclosure via XML entity attacks in the
external GetID3 library, reported by Ivan Novikov of ONSec.

- -Adds protections against brute attacks against CSRF tokens, reported
by David Tomaschik of the Google Security Team.

- -Contains some additional security hardening, like preventing
cross-site scripting that could be triggered only by administrators.
