Yeah I got them switched around. The correct assignment is:

2. Descripcion.

==========

WordPress 0.7 permite la ejecucion remota de comandos en ./wp-links/links.all.php. Un atacante puede
inyectar una url en $abspath y obtener ejecucion remota de comandos con los privilegios del servidor
web (habitualmente nobody).

WordPress 0.7 allows remote execution of commands. / Wp-links / links.all.php. An attacker can
 inject a url in $ abspath and get remote execution of commands with the privileges of the server
 web (usually nobody).

CVE-2003-1599 is about links.all.php abspath variable RFI
==========


WordPress 0.7 (codigo de b2 cafelog) permite inyeccion sql en ./blog.header.php. $posts no se
convierte a entero, por lo que podemos inyectar sql en esta variable. En MySQL 4.x podemos utilizar
UNION y subselects para obtener privilegios.



 WordPress 0.7 (b2 cafelog code) allows SQL injection. / Blog.header.php. $ posts not
 converted to an integer, so we can inject sql in this variable. In MySQL 4.x can use
 UNION and subselects to obtain privileges.
CVE-2003-1598 is about blog.header.php posts variable SQL injection


==========

Since these are very old I think we can get away with switching them and not re-assigning.
