Wrong Word Press configuration settings where we would least expect it:

User enumeration not set to disabled. The first two user ID's were tested to determine if user enumeration is possible.

Username   Name
ID: 1   k1m   
ID: 2   mrio   

It is recommended to rename the admin user account to reduce the chance of brute force attacks occurring. As this will reduce the chance of automated password attackers gaining access. Take note that if the author archives are enabled it is usually possible to enumerate all users within a WordPress installation.
