WordPress 2.6.5 released with important security fix

By Paul Cunningham

WordPress have released version 2.6.5 for download which includes a fix for a cross site scripting security vulnerability.

The team has intentionally skipped version 2.6.4 due to a fake WordPress 2.6.4 release that was made by hackers. There will never be a 2.6.4 version released by WordPress.
