 Severity:  normal        |   Keywords:  has-patch
--------------------------+-----------------------------
 Potential SQL injection vulnerability found in wp-includes/wp-db.php where
 mysql_set_charset() execution in class wpdb->set_charset() has wrong param
 order.
 Whereas it should be:
 {{{
 mysql_set_charset( $dbh, $charset );
 }}}
 It is:
 {{{
 mysql_set_charset( $charset, $dbh );
 }}}
 In some cases it causes MySQL to use default latin1 encoding.
