Security update to version 4.7.2.

Changes:

Version 4.7.2

* Remote code execution (RCE) in PHPMailer 窶� No specific issue appears to
  affect WordPress or any of the major plugins we investigated but, out of an
  abundance of caution, we updated PHPMailer in this release. This issue was
  reported to PHPMailer by Dawid Golunski and Paul Buonopane.
* The REST API exposed user data for all users who had authored a post of a
  public post type. WordPress 4.7.1 limits this to only post types which have
  specified that they should be shown within the REST API. Reported by
  Krogsgard and Chris Jean.
* Cross-site scripting (XSS) via the plugin name or version header on
  update-core.php. Reported by Dominik Schilling of the WordPress Security
  Team.
* Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) bypass via uploading a Flash file. Reported
  by Abdullah Hussam.
* Cross-site scripting (XSS) via theme name fallback. Reported by Mehmet Ince.
* Post via email checks mail.example.com if default settings aren窶冲 changed.
  Reported by John Blackbourn of the WordPress Security Team.
* A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) was discovered in the accessibility mode
  of widget editing. Reported by Ronnie Skansing.
* Weak cryptographic security for multisite activation key. Reported by Jack.

Version 4.7.1

* The user interface for assigning taxonomy terms in Press This is shown to
  users who do not have permissions to use it. Reported by David Herrera of
  Alley Interactive.
* WP_Query is vulnerable to a SQL injection (SQLi) when passing unsafe data.
  WordPress core is not directly vulnerable to this issue, but we窶况e added
  hardening to prevent plugins and themes from accidentally causing a
  vulnerability. Reported by Mo Jangda (batmoo).
* A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was discovered in the posts list
  table. Reported by Ian Dunn of the WordPress Security Team.
