Well, this morning I read about an exploit for WordPress 2.8.3 that allows a user to change the admin's password, and effectively lock them out of their own account. Pretty nasty stuff.

Thankfully, SimpleScripts had WordPress 2.8.4 ready to go and I was able to quickly update my installs to the version with the fix. Whew!
