[...] Problemas de seguridad Resueltos [...]

I’m happy to see the work security slide into this release, it’s about time the development team took it seriously enough.

Things i like are:

- Salted passwords. Now we still need users to pick decent passwords in order to prevent brute-force attacks, but having this is another layer of security which is needed.
- Secure Cookies. Ok, about time we finally saw this rather fundamental protection needed for one of the main authentication/authorisation methods that WP uses.

One a side note, I’d love to know how many people here force their WP to use SSL, especially if they are readers of this site :0)

Until you folks on this site tell me I’m not doing the update. WP always has some security issues when its released.

Dave, thanks for the faith :)

Unless there is a critical update, holding back on a stable version of software is usually the better option.

[...] got an interesting comment from Dave today that made me reflect on the question of when to update or upgrade your blog [...]
