July 20, Oh no.. not another wordpress upgrade.. with almost more than a week after the release of wordpress 2.8.1, the development team says:

“WordPress 2.8.2 fixes an XSS vulnerability. Comment author URLs were not fully sanitized when displayed in the admin. This could be exploited to redirect you away from the admin to another site.”, now that’s freakin scary.. thanks to automatic upgrade.

It looks like WordPress is jumping in the VULNERABILITY wagon started by firefox, so whats next? Google Chrome OS Vulnerability, oh common the OS isn’t officially out.

WordPress.org did not tell more info, I guess it’s just it.
