A new release of WordPress has just been released.

The highlights of this release:

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.

They call it a “Hardening Release”, and it is – as always – recommended to upgrade as soon as possible. I have already upgraded CleverWP.com .. Just in case

V.C October 21, 2009 at 14:05: 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.

Maybe not, but whenever there are security releases, I update. Trackback DOS attacks? Haven’t heard about those, but now I do not have to, I hope.
