Check Your Site Software for Updates
Thursday, August 28th, 2008
There are major security bugs in some older versions of Joomla and WordPress. We are asking all shared hosting customers and resellers to ensure all the software on their accounts is up to date.
If you are running Joomla, it should be version 1.5.6 to avoid any security risk.
If you are running WordPress, it should be at least version 2.6.0 (2.6.1 is the latest but 2.6.0 is secure).
Software installed through Installatron can be upgraded really easy with only a few clicks in your cPanel. Hosting Resellers can also over-see all software installs through the Installatron Script Installer in their Web Host Manager.
If you have any questions about upgrading your software, please do get in touch.
