New WordPress Security Update

For those of you running WordPress on your own hosting account, be sure to check out the latest WordPress security update that was released earlier this morning.

We have a security update release now available for both the 2.1 and 2.0 branches of WordPress now available for immediate download. This update is highly recommend for all users of both branches.

These releases include fixes for several publicly known minor XSS issues, one major XML-RPC issue, and a proactive full sweep of the WordPress codebase to protect against future problems. Many thanks to Sumit Siddharth and Alex Concha for their help with reporting issues in this release.

Be sure to take the time to perform this update and keep your site running smoothly. If you need help with the upgrade, feel free to ask here.
