Yet another upgrade
Things are moving fast these days: shortly after the release of the 2.8-branch, patches 2.8.1 and even 2.8.2 became available.
Today I upgraded to 2.8.2 to avoid being vulnerable to an XSS-attack.
I hope these kinds vulnerabilities will not be present in this version, nor the following versions. However: props to the contributors at WP for fixing it fast!
Are you checking up on wordpress releases yourself? Or are you on a mailing list of some kind?
I’m not monitoring the releases, WordPress is monitoring it for me!
When I log on to my admin-area, there’s a giant yellowish bar telling me there’s an upgrade available, whenever there’s an upgrade available.
It’s that easy!
