Comment (by ditdotdat):

 On some hosts you can turn of mod_security on a file by file basis using
 an .htaccess file with the following syntax.


 {{{
 SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI ^PATH_TO_WORDPRESS/wp-admin/async-upload.php$
 MODSEC_ENABLE=Off
 }}}


 Obviously replacing PATH_TO_WORDPRESS with the path to your blog ie.
 /wordpress or just /

 I suppose it would be a bit too much of a kludge for Wordpress to install
 this .htaccess file itself.
