Just a few hours ago, Automattic released WordPress 2.3.3 which fixes the flaw found in the XML-RPC implementation of WordPress which would allow a valid user to edit posts of any other user on that blog.

A recommended update for your WordPress powered blog and I suggest you do so. I saw a couple of blogs being exploited because of an outdated WP engine. We don’t want to have someone exploit the bugs on your own blog, do we now?

With version 2.3.3, it also includes some few minor bugs that can be found here. If you are interested only in the security fix, download the fixed version of xmlrpc.php and copy over your existing xmlrpc.php.

Finally! After a few days of work, I managed to finish (well sort of) re-designing / customizing this new theme . This is one of the reason why I’m not updating my blog recently. To tell you honestly, I was planning on using a new theme by the start of this year. I already started last December but wasn’t able to finish it on time because I was pre-occupied during the holiday season.

I’m back with the blue and white theme which is what I mostly used. This theme is based from the 3 K2 Redux klein theme by Headsetoptions. It is a modified K2 theme which I then modified for my own preference. By the way, I would like to thank him for helping me out with my inquiries on customizing the theme.
