As soon as reports started to circle the net about the SEO hacker wordpress releases a new version to deal with the vulnerability he is using. This new 2.0.7 wordpress version fixes two different bugs one in the feed and another one that happens depending on what PHP version you are using.
Since this is a minor version though only the following files have to be replaced:
* wp-admin/inline-uploading.php
* wp-admin/post.php
* wp-includes/classes.php
* wp-includes/functions.php
* wp-settings.php
* wp-includes/version.php
The bug that the SEO hacker was using called the “zend_hash_del_key_or_index” bug has been fixed along with these:
# Feeds now properly serve 304 Not Modified headers instead of mismatched 200/304 headers (a.k.a. the FeedBurner bug).
# Backport of another 304 Not Modified fix from WordPress 2.1
# Deleting WordPress Pages no longer gives an “Are You Sure?” prompt.
# After deleting a WordPress Page, you are now properly redirected to the Edit Pages screen.
# Sending an image at original size in Internet Explorer no longer adds an incorrect “height” attribute.
It’s startling how quickly worpdress has been able to counter this new hacker and effectively help everyone that was on his hit list.
Thank You
