    Question Anyone elsse see the wordpress update news

    a "serious security flaw" shoot

    http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/12...itical_update/

    I do wonder how many accounts are going to put on hold for high cpu usage when people update, or will most wordpressers not know about it ?

    I upgraded Wordpress on my test account which is found on Starka. Didn't trigger a high resource usage running the upgrade.

    Yeah, I upgraded automatically on Stoli expecting to get suspended again, but this time it worked perfectly...No suspension!

    As per the newsletter the resources will be increased from January 1st onwards. So this will reduce the high resource suspensions

    Waiting on the update now, anyone else find that they have to update plugins via FTP in order to avoid the suspension?

    It's a very minor edit, so will not take long. Half of HRU suspensions are about the length of time taken, so this update won't cause HRU suspensions (unless the server is running slow).

    Security flaw...there have only been 15 (i'm pulling numbers out of a hat) known cases of wordpress users hacks being done the way that flaw would have left you to do it.

    Heck, I go and look for updates for wordpress maybe...ummmhmmmhhmm NEVER...

    You see, since that 15 count I just mentioned above, from the time they posted that "CRITICAL SECURITY FLAW MESSAGE" hacks successful increased 12%

    Do you guys see what I am saying...hell, it would have been better to just leave the security flaw...couple hundred wordpresses hacked in ow lets say 5 years is better than the couple hundred hacked in the last 3 weeks or less.

    Sometimes I think people are idiots, mentioning such security flaws like that in public. Just have a new update come up when you're in the panel, don't go around screaming SECURITY HACK, SECURITY FLAW...

    Why don't people think before they act? Because they act with their Empty HEAD, not their common sense.

    ...That was dramatic, but hey, it's my first crossfire post in a while now...

    I see people aren't soo rallied up anymore as they used too...I think they need to change the crossfire forum rules a little so I don't turn out to be the most worked up anymore hehe.
