WordPress version 2.8.3 is now available for download and upgrade.

Users who install WordPress using our Installatron Application Installer can also upgrade using the Installatron upgrade tool. Make sure you perform a backup of your current installation before upgrade.

WordPress is a state-of-the-art personal publishing platform/blogger with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability.

Unfortunately, I missed some places when fixing the privilege escalation issues for 2.8.1.  Luckily, the entire WordPress community has our backs.  Several folks in the community dug deeper and discovered areas that were overlooked.  With their help, the remaining issues are fixed in 2.8.3.  Since this is a security release, upgrading is highly recommended.
