WordPress 2.8.5 has been released and is up for download. Nothing exciting to see as it just addresses the exploit that was published this morning plus a few minor things. From the WordPress.org post:
- A fix for the Trackback Denial-of-Service attack that is currently being seen.
- Removal of areas within the code where php code in variables was evaluated.
- Switched the file upload functionality to be whitelisted for all users including Admins.
- Retiring of the two importers of Tag data from old plugins.
So get your installs up to date by downloading or upgrade in the admin panel!
