Subject: CVE Request: wordpress and mediaelement

Hi,
  wordpress 4.5.1 has two security issues[1], both XSS, both fixed in 4.5.2

One is around the plupload embedded code[2] which I'm unsure if it affects
plupload proper or just wordpress.
The second is around mediaelement[3] and this does affect the upstream
program but is already fixed[4].
