If you use WordPress version 2.1.1, a dangerous security breach in that version has been discovered.
The announcement came late yesterday:
If you downloaded WordPress 2.1.1 within the past 3-4 days, your files may include a security exploit that was added by a cracker, and you should upgrade all of your files to 2.1.2 immediately.
[...] No downloads were altered except 2.1.1, so if you’ve downloaded any version of 2.0 you should be fine.
When a software alert includes the word “dangerous,” you know you need to take immediate action. Download version 2.1.2 and follow the excellent upgrade guide.
Please spread the word to anyone you know using WordPress version 2.1.1.
