WordPress 2.3.2 is Now Available for Download

By Jers in Blogging Tips

As I was checking my blog’s comments earlier, I noticed this message saying “A new version of WordPress is available! Please update now“. I was kinda surprise since I haven’t heard any buzz about it, no wonder, the new update is an urgent security release that fixes a bug that can be used to expose your draft posts. So if you regularly do some scheduled posts, better upgrade with this version now to avoid leakage of your future posts :)

WordPress 2.3.2 is an urgent security release that fixes a bug that can be used to expose your draft posts. 2.3.2 also suppresses some error messages that can give away information about your database table structure and limits and stops some information leaks in the XML-RPC and APP implementations. Get 2.3.2 now to protect your blog from these disclosures.

How to Upgrade to WordPress 2.3.2

  1. Download the latest files here.
  2. Copy the latest files to your blog’s host using a FTP client or your control panel ( or what ever means of transferring files to your blog’s host),over writing your existing wordpress files.
  3. Since this is not a major update, there’s no changes in the database structure so updating your files finalizes the upgrade.

That’s it!
