WordPress 2.6.5 Released

Being a Blogspot blogger, I tend to ignore most of the WordPress releases, but today I wanted to bring you the information for the latest update for WordPress, 2.6.5. Apparently this new version tightens up security and a couple of applications by fixing a few bugs and the aforementioned security issue.

Granted, I don't know too much about WordPress even though I utilize it as a guest content producer on a few sites, but I do enjoy the simplicity of their software. Anyway, I had been considering moving 8-Big Memoirs to a privately hosted WordPress "format", but haven't had the desire to follow through yet. I am happy where that blog is and don't want to push it too much toward advertising yet, but we aren't here to talk about that today.

Back to the purpose of this post, the new WordPress update fixes the following three bugs;

1) prevents accidentally saving post meta information to a revision.

2) prevents XML-RPC from fetching incorrect post types.

3) adds some user ID sanitization during bulk delete requests.

You can download the update from the following link if you are interested.
