WordPress 3.5.2

June 22, 2013 by Brian Groce

WordPress 3.5.2 was released on June 21, 2013 and is a maintenance and security update which addresses 12 bugs with version 3.5.

The security issues addressed include:

  • Blocking server-side request forgery attacks, which could potentially enable an attacker to gain access to a site.
  • Disallow contributors from improperly publishing posts, or reassigning the post’s authorship.
  • An update to the SWFUpload external library to fix cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.
  • Prevention of a denial of service attack, affecting sites using password-protected posts.
  • An update to an external TinyMCE library to fix a cross-site scripting vulnerability.
  • Multiple fixes for cross-site scripting.
  • Avoid disclosing a full file path when a upload fails.

As always, we highly recommend that you keep your WordPress installation, WordPress themes and WordPress plugins up to date to ensure that you’re running the most secure and feature rich version of WordPress.

If you need assistance with upgrading, please schedule your WordPress upgrade today via our WordSprung WordPress Upgrade Service.
