The WordPress team have announced a new version of WordPress (1.5.2) is now available.
The new version includes a number of improvements and security fixes.
I’ve got to agree with the comments over at No Wow though:
“The changelog mentions that several vulnerabilities have been fixed but ‘€” once again ‘€” the developers don’€™t provide any details! One has to look at the diffs to see what has been fixed… I hate that kind of silly security by obscurity. Vague vulnerability are almost useless for administrators, just saying ‘€œwe’€™ve fixed some security problems’€? is even worse!”
As WordPress users we deserve better than this. C’mon Matt and friends, your name isn’t Mena! Open source should also equal open communication.
