Emergency Update Of WordPress Released - Version 2.1.2
March 3rd, 2007 • Related • Filed Under
I guess it had to happen eventually. A cracker manged to gain access to the servers that host the WordPress code and modified 2 files, that would allow them them to do nasty things to your blog. The WordPress team have responded brilliantly since they learned of the breach, and have put a new, clean and unblemised version on the WordPress site.
The hackers only managed to get access over the last couple of days, so your blog is only at risk from this threat if you’ve updated it in the last couple of days. However, the latest 2.1.2 version of WordPress also includes a few other security updates, so my advice is for all WordPress users to update.
