Wordpress 2.3.3 - Security Release

In addition WordPress to fixing this security flaw, 2.3.3 also fixes a few minor bugs. If you are interested only in th security fix, download the fixed version of xmlrpc.php and copy it over your existing xmlrpc.php. If you require the whole release you can get here.

Also a vulnerability in the WP-Forum plugin has been found and is being actively exploited right now. If you are using this plugin it’s recommended you remove it until an update is available.
