If you haven’t heard the news, many Wordpress blog are being attacked by hackers in the past few days and the numbers are growing by the hours. Reported by mashable, the newest vulnerability can affect any prior versions of Wordpress (Before version 2.8.4). People who have their blog hosted on wordpress.com do not have to worry about the attack as it only affect self-hosted blogs.
However I am hearing claims that Wordpress 2.8.4 is starting to be penetrated too. It still a good idea to update to the latest version if you haven’t done so.
I am now going to carry out an emergency backup/update to SlashNow, site may be down in the next couple hours. Hopefully I wont delete everything. See you all on the flip side.
