El equipo de WordPress ha lanzado hoy WordPress 2.8.5 como una versión de refuerzo para hacer WordPress más seguro. Dado que la actualización mejora la seguridad de su sitio, se recomienda actualizarla lo antes posible.
Los cambios titulares de esta versión son:
- Una corrección para el ataque de denegación de servicio por trackback que se está viendo actualmente.
- Eliminación de áreas dentro del código donde se evaluaba el código php en variables.
- Cambio de la funcionalidad de subida de archivos a la lista blanca para todos los usuarios, incluidos los administradores.
- Retirada de los dos importadores de datos de etiquetas de plugins antiguos.
Si cree que su blog ha sido víctima de uno de los recientes exploits, WordPress le recomienda que utilice WordPress Exploit Scanner para asegurarse de que se han vaciado todos los rastros del exploit.
Actualiza ahora y asegúrate de seguir la Guía definitiva para actualizar WordPress.

@V,C making such statement is so wrong, doing some quick search i found that you are hosting i guess your website with xlhost. So of course it would not bother you if someones hardware is being abused. However people who run their own small blogs or websites should indeed upgrade to 2.8.5.
Being an Editor of the site with Admin account is one thing.
However being an system or network Admin is the other one.
You yourself is nothing more than a reactive type of admin.. Fixing B.S after your stuff gets compromised..
True security is done through proactive security, making sure that you test and then implement patches..
Your choice!
However do not make such trolling statements..

I don’t understand why they released the new version so quickly after the last update 2 months ago.
I don’t see any changing in this new version. It’s not really necessary to upgrade.
