Can I get CVE for WordPress 4.2.3 and earlier multiple vulnerabilities

https://codex.wordpress.org/Version_4.2.4 says:

"WordPress 4.2.4 fixes three cross-site scripting vulnerabilities and a
potential SQL injection that could be used to compromise a site
(CVE-2015-2213)."

The correct parsing of that sentence is like:

  WordPress 4.2.4 fixes three cross-site scripting vulnerabilities and
  [a potential SQL injection that could be used to compromise a site
  (CVE-2015-2213)]

not like:
  
  [WordPress 4.2.4 fixes three cross-site scripting vulnerabilities and
  a potential SQL injection that could be used to compromise a site]
  (CVE-2015-2213)

See below for the set of 6 CVE IDs that correspond to the currently
