XMLRPC Sploit Cornfusion: How did the Inquirer people derive that article from their alleged source? The recent vulnerabilities reported about PHP blogging tools (including WordPress) is partially wrong. WordPress is not affected by those series of vulnerabilities because WordPress does not use the same XML-RPC libraries as those other blogging tools.
