Have put this thread here so as many eyes see it as poss, as last week, had an issue on some WP PBN setups [all different hosts] and thought it was lots of buyers!


It was not, it was a hole in WP...


To be clear...


https://wordpress.org/news/2014/11/wordpress-4-0-1/



If your sites / networks / landers / pbn's are not on this version released today Nov 20th 2014... your money sites are open for crappy crap from all over the web etc etc..


Hope this helps you keep earning with Wordpress ;-)

FWIW, I received email yesterday that my WP site had been auto updated to 4.01

d*** WordPress - can't live with it; can't live without it - always the vulnerabilities ;)

I recall within the last year, on a couple of my sites, there was an auto-update thing going on. I assumed it was a new wordpress feature. But now, I don't see that anymore (cause it is asking me to do it when I login again).

I suspect there are settings in wp-config.php OR plugins that may allow auto-update. It "would be nice" if anyone that knows either of those methods (if they exist) to put two cents in. (two F****** cents :angry:jk)

("Putting two cents in" means "do you know a solution?")
