Security Upgrade to WordPress Released–an easy must upgrade

Earlier this week gHacks announced a “benevolent” WP fixing worm which Mark Jaquith responded to and let us know that an update to fix the problems was coming. This morning I found out that it was out:

If you haven?t noticed yet, WordPress just released a new security upgrade. Version 2.2.2 and legacy branch 2.0.11 are out and ready for download. There are several bug fixes in this version and should be a really quick upgrade. Source: Security Upgrade to WordPress 2.2.2 & 2.0.11 | YugaTech | Philippine Technology News & Reviews

The official announcement from WordPress is pretty straight forward and, yes, the updated files are few in number so I just downloaded the changed files only as a zip archive and updated only the changed files. Took a lot less time than a complete file replacement.
