Many users of the WordPress open source blogging platform had just finished updating to the new version 2.06. Less than two weeks later, WordPress.org announced version 2.0.7. The reasons given for the the back-to-back releases were to “to fix the PHP security problem and the Feedburner issue that was in 2.0.6.” WordPress users are eagerly awaiting the upcoming 2.1 version.

Recently a bug in certain versions of PHP came to our attention that could cause a security vulnerability in your blog.
