    Hi Mark, Yes I used Google translate to convert the error message in to English. The URL is http://blog.jstreettech.com. I have been successful in posting new “test” posts, but the error message (displaying in German) is always at the top of the page. We have checked the log files for any resource issues and there are none and we rebooted the servers. Thanks, Katrina

    Hi,

    We are experiencing the same issue. We are running WordPress 2.9.2 but Security Metrics is still failing us because of:
    Synopsis : The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by an information disclosure issue. Description : The version of WordPress on the remote host does not properly check for administrative credentials in the ‘is_admin()’ function in ‘wp-includes/query.php’. Using a specially-crafted URL that contains the string ‘wp-admin/’, an attacker may be able to leverage this issue to view posts for which the status is classified as ‘future’, ‘draft’, or ‘pending’, which would otherwise be available only to authenticated users.

    Help please!

    Hi,

    I am having the same issue- Security Metrics is failing my PCI Complaince on our e-commmerce web site. I upgraded our WordPress version to 2.9.2 yesterday. Ran a new SM scan and we are still failing for the same reason:
    Description : The version of WordPress on the remote host does not properly check for administrative credentials in the ‘is_admin()’ function in ‘wp-includes/query.php’.

    Any thoughts on how to fix this would be great!

    Thanks,
    Katrina
