Sadly, the information is quite limited: "Version 3.4.2 also fixes
a few security issues and contains some security hardening. The
vulnerabilities included potential privilege escalation and a bug
that affects multisite installs with untrusted users. These issues
were discovered and fixed by the WordPress security team."

I suggest assigning two: 1. potential privilege escalation 2.
problem with untrusted users on multisite installations unless
someone has more information.

Can security () wordpress org provide clarification on this please?
