WordPress Themes 2.1.1 Dangerous
March 6th, 2007 in WordPress ThemesAttention! The WordPress 2.1.1 version has recently been declared dangerous. The reason for this is that a security breech was created by a hacker. It was also determined that a hacker gained access to modify the download file. Fortunately, only the 2.1.1 was affected by the hacker, and not all of its downloads were corrupted.
Nevertheless, the entire version was announced to be dangerous and a new version, 2.1.2 was released. WordPress 2.1.2 does not differ from the previous version very much. It includes only minor changes and has completely verified files.
So you should upgrade all of your files to 2.1.2 immediately if you downloaded WordPress 2.1.1 within the past 3-4 days.

I know, I’ve just upgraded to 2.1.1 a few days ago, now I’ve upgraded to 2.1.2.

Thanks for the warning. I upgraded my blogs a few days ago too. Also, I was wondering, is there something wrong with the store? I can’t seem to access the templates. I get a 504 error. Could you please take a look at this? Thanks.

I’ve just heard that the 504 issue has been solved.
