So there’s a new wordpress upgrade available? But this is just a security fix, a flaw was found in the XML-RPC implementation that would allow users to edit other peoples post/comment this is bad for those who allow registration on their blog. There is only this security fix to be noted other-wise you can download the complete package of wordpress and upgrade it to version 2.3.3.
Please note that version 2.3.3 also fixes some other minor bugs. You can have a look at that small list by Clicking Here.
There is yet another exploit found, but that is for users using the WP-forum plugin, it is advised by wordpress itself that you stop using that script until the author fixes the exploit.
You can download the XML-RPC Security Fix by Clicking Here. or goto www.wordpress.org to get the complete upgrade if you want that.
You can checkout the complete news about the changes by Clicking Here.

I upgraded. Not for the security updat really, but for the tag support. Great post though. Didn’t know about the WP-Forum flaw, thanks.
Nice Blog. Good Look!
