 Hi all,

 upon debugging this Notice on one of our client's site

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 NoticedError: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given

 }}}

 I've found a small discrepancy in the namings used in core file `wp-
 includes/kses.php `, so the global **$allowedxmlentitynames** variable is
 actually used further as **$allowedxmlnamedentities**, I am guessing this
 might not be intentional?

 I am lead to believe this might be the source of the issue, however, I was
 unable to actively duplicate the issue as it happens during a scheduled
 cron event.

 Happy to submit a patch for this if it's confirmed.


 Thank you
