The way wordpress ships his libraries is absolutely prone to security
problems, you're right. I'm working on a new package to make wordpress
depend on all those libraries instead of shipping embedded copies.

First of all I'll try to eliminate libraries with known and published
CVEs so to have a package with no security problems.

Thank you very much for your help.

Cheers.
