WordPress 2.8.6 released

Just about an hour ago WordPress 2.8.6 was finalized and released. Nothing exciting with this release – just a few security fixes.

From the WordPress.org blog:

2.8.6 fixes two security problems that can be exploited by registered, logged in users who have posting privileges.  If you have untrusted authors on your blog, upgrading to 2.8.6 is recommended.

On another note, WordPress 2.9 is still scheduled for a final release at the end of November/early December. You can still download and test the latest WP 2.9 nightly build here.

Finally, WordPress MU received a few updates last week and is now up to 2.8.5.2.
