Security Updates

There are new versions available for two common CMS systems Word Press
and phpBB - 23rd December and 5th January respectively. Security holes
in your site could allow anything from denial of service to
defacement.
Please make sure you keep abreast of updates on these (and other)
engines. While updates are a pain in the short term, they are in
investment in long term security.

We have recently sent out emails to obvious phpBB sites, and are
awaiting responses / updates.

Mails will be going out to obvious WP users this week, however since
you
are ahead of the game you may also wish to subscribe to the following
feed: http://wordpress.org/development/category/security/

Please check your permission settings after any install!
