WordPress 3.8.2

WordPress 3.8.2 has been released and it is important for all you guys to update it as it is a security release.

WordPress 3.8.2 is now available. This is an important security release for all previous versions and we strongly encourage you to update your sites immediately.
This releases fixes a weakness that could let an attacker force their way into your site by forging authentication cookies. This was discovered and fixed by Jon Cave of the WordPress security team.
It also contains a fix to prevent a user with the Contributor role from improperly publishing posts. Reported by edik.

This release also fixes nine bugs and contains three other security hardening changes:

  • Pass along additional information when processing pingbacks to help hosts identify potentially abusive requests.
  • Fix a low-impact SQL injection by trusted users. Reported by Tom Adams of dxw.
  • Prevent possible cross-domain scripting through Plupload, the third-party library WordPress uses for uploading files. Reported by Szymon Gruszecki.

Plugins Update Delayed

Most of my plugins update which is intended to be released for May will be delayed for about 2 months because I got a freelance/contract job which I have to complete urgently as my client had paid me 40% down payment.

If you have a basic knowledge of SVN, you can get all the latest updates for my plugins straight from WordPress Plugins SVN. They are stable.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.

WP-EMail 2.11, WP-Print 2.11

I have fixed 2 minor bugs for WP-EMail 2.11 and WP-Print 2.11. I did not bump the version number because a lot of hassle is needed. Instead I just update the zip file.

The 2 bugs are:

1. Unable to display feed properly if you are using [ email_link ] or [ print_link ] to embed the email/print link within the post.
2. 404 error if you are using a custom permalink structure without a / at the end.
