WordPress has released its new version 2.5.1 It has got many security fixes and some minor bug fixes. You may either replace the security fixed files or do a complete update. The files that were fixed with security issues were – wp-includes/pluggable.php, wp-admin/includes/media.php, and wp-admin/media.php. You can just replace your existing files with the above one.
This release of WordPress also adds a new security key feature to the wp-config.php file that will let you randomize cookie encryption. You can visit this link we set up to get a unique secret key for your config file. (It’s unique and random on every page load.) Having this line in your config file helps secure your blog.
