WordPress Remote Code Execution - Upgrade NOW!
Over the weekend, there was a notice about a security exploit that was inserted into the install files for WordPress 2.1.1. Care to guess what version of WordPress this blog was running? Don’t worry, I wasn’t about to volunteer that information until I actually had the upgrade taken care of. Upgrading WordPress isn’t an entirely painless experience, but at least it’s a well-documented process.
If you are running WordPress 2.1.1, and you haven’t already done so, go to this link immediately, and follow the instructions to upgrade to 2.1.2:
WordPress 2.1.1 dangerous, Upgrade to 2.1.2
Note: I appear to be having some difficulty creating links, post upgrade. I’ll see what I can do to resolve the problem and update this post.
Update: Problem resolved
