On 5th January, WordPress released 2.9.1 version and now it’s time to upgrade. It is available for download at the official WordPress site.

Any idea why this upgrade is for?

As quoted on the WordPress blog, the previous version 2.9.1 allows logged in users to read trashed blog posts that belong to other authors. That means your personal crush to professional blueprint might be seen by your colleagues and blogging partner. That’s too risky right?

And I also came across this quote,

“Thomas Mackenzie alerted us to a problem where logged in users can peek at trashed posts belonging to other authors. If you have untrusted users signed up on your blog and sensitive posts in the trash, you should upgrade to 2.9.2.”

I recommend all my readers to upgrade quickly. It has lot of security fixes too.
